Psalms 55 (NIV11)
undefined For the director of music. With stringed instruments. A maskil of David. 1 Listen to my prayer, O God,do not ignore my plea; 2 hear me and answer me.My thoughts trouble me and I am distraught 3 because of what my enemy is saying,because of the threats of the wicked;for they bring down suffering on meand assail me in their anger. 4 My heart is in anguish within me;the terrors of death have fallen on me. 5 Fear and trembling have beset me;horror has overwhelmed me. 6 I said, “Oh, that I had the wings of a dove!I would fly away and be at rest. 7 I would flee far awayand stay in the desert; 8 I would hurry to my place of shelter,far from the tempest and storm.” 9 Lord, confuse the wicked, confound their words,for I see violence and strife in the city. 10 Day and night they prowl about on its walls;malice and abuse are within it. 11 Destructive forces are at work in the city;threats and lies never leave its streets. 12 If an enemy were insulting me,I could endure it;if a foe were rising against me,I could hide. 13 But it is you, a man like myself,my companion, my close friend, 14 with whom I once enjoyed sweet fellowshipat the house of God,as we walked aboutamong the worshipers. 15 Let death take my enemies by surprise;let them go down alive to the realm of the dead,for evil finds lodging among them. 16 As for me, I call to God,and the LORD saves me. 17 Evening, morning and noonI cry out in distress,and he hears my voice. 18 He rescues me unharmedfrom the battle waged against me,even though many oppose me. 19 God, who is enthroned from of old,who does not change—he will hear them and humble them,because they have no fear of God. 20 My companion attacks his friends;he violates his covenant. 21 His talk is smooth as butter,yet war is in his heart;his words are more soothing than oil,yet they are drawn swords. 22 Cast your cares on the LORDand he will sustain you;he will never letthe righteous be shaken. 23 But you, God, will bring down the wickedinto the pit of decay;the bloodthirsty and deceitfulwill not live out half their days. But as for me, I trust in you.
