Chapter 56 | |
1 | Be merciful unto me, O ELOHIYM: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me. |
2 | Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against me, O thou ELYOWN. |
3 | What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee. |
4 | In ELOHIYM I will praise his word, in ELOHIYM I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me. |
5 | Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil. |
6 | They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul. |
7 | Shall they escape by iniquity? in thine anger cast down the people, O ELOHIYM. |
8 | Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book? |
9 | When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for ELOHIYM is for me. |
10 | In ELOHIYM will I praise his word: in YHVH will I praise his word. |
11 | In ELOHIYM have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me. |
12 | Thy vows are upon me, O ELOHIYM: I will render praises unto thee. |
13 | For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before ELOHIYM in the light of the living? |
