Psalms 56:1-2

Psalm 56

For the music director; according to the yonath-elem-rechovim style; a prayer of David, written when the Philistines captured him in Gath.

56:1 Have mercy on me, O God, for men are attacking me!

All day long hostile enemies are tormenting me.

56:2 Those who anticipate my defeat attack me all day long.

Indeed, many are fighting against me, O Exalted One.

Psalms 56:13

56:13 when you deliver my life from death.

You keep my feet from stumbling,

so that I might serve God as I enjoy life.
