PS-55:1 To the chief Musician on Neginoth, Maschil, [A Psalm] of
David. Give
ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not thyself from my
supplication.
PS-55:2 Attend unto me, and hear me: I mourn in my complaint,
and make a
noise;
PS-55:3 Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the
oppression of the
wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath they hate
me.
PS-55:4 My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of
death are fallen
upon me.
PS-55:5 Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and horror
hath
overwhelmed me.
PS-55:6 And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! [for then]
would I fly
away, and be at rest.
PS-55:7 Lo, [then] would I wander far off, [and] remain in the
wilderness.
Selah.
PS-55:8 I would hasten my escape from the windy storm [and]
tempest.
PS-55:9 Destroy, O Lord, [and] divide their tongues: for I have
seen violence
and strife in the city.
PS-55:10 Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof:
mischief also
and sorrow [are] in the midst of it.
PS-55:11 Wickedness [is] in the midst thereof: deceit and guile
depart not
from her streets.
PS-55:12 For [it was] not an enemy [that] reproached me; then I
could have
borne [it]: neither [was it] he that hated me [that] did magnify
[himself]
against me; then I would have hid myself from him:
PS-55:13 But [it was] thou, a man mine equal, my guide, and mine
acquaintance.
PS-55:14 We took sweet counsel together, [and] walked unto the
house of God in
company.
PS-55:15 Let death seize upon them, [and] let them go down quick
into hell:
for wickedness [is] in their dwellings, [and] among them.
PS-55:16 As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall
save me.
PS-55:17 Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry
aloud: and he
shall hear my voice.
PS-55:18 He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle
[that was] against
me: for there were many with me.
PS-55:19 God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abideth
of old. Selah.
Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.
PS-55:20 He hath put forth his hands against such as be at peace
with him: he
hath broken his covenant.
PS-55:21 [The words] of his mouth were smoother than butter, but
war [was] in
his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet [were] they drawn
swords.
PS-55:22 Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain
thee: he shall
never suffer the righteous to be moved.
PS-55:23 But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of
destruction:
bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but
I will trust
in thee.
