| Psalm 55:1 Give ear to my prayer, O God; And do not hide Yourself from my supplication. Psalm 55:2 Give heed to me and answer me; I am restless in my complaint and am surely distracted, Psalm 55:3 Because of the voice of the enemy, Because of the pressure of the wicked; For they bring down trouble upon me And in anger they bear a grudge against me. Psalm 55:4 My heart is in anguish within me, And the terrors of death have fallen upon me. Psalm 55:5 Fear and trembling come upon me, And horror has overwhelmed me. Psalm 55:6 I said, "Oh, that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and be at rest. Psalm 55:7 "Behold, I would wander far away, I would lodge in the wilderness. Selah. Psalm 55:8 "I would hasten to my place of refuge From the stormy wind and tempest." Psalm 55:9 Confuse, O Lord, divide their tongues, For I have seen violence and strife in the city. Psalm 55:10 Day and night they go around her upon her walls, And iniquity and mischief are in her midst. Psalm 55:11 Destruction is in her midst; Oppression and deceit do not depart from her streets. Psalm 55:12 For it is not an enemy who reproaches me, Then I could bear it; Nor is it one who hates me who has exalted himself against me, Then I could hide myself from him. Psalm 55:13 But it is you, a man my equal, My companion and my familiar friend; Psalm 55:14 We who had sweet fellowship together Walked in the house of God in the throng. Psalm 55:15 Let death come deceitfully upon them; Let them go down alive to Sheol, For evil is in their dwelling, in their midst. Psalm 55:16 As for me, I shall call upon God, And the Lord will save me. Psalm 55:17 Evening and morning and at noon, I will complain and murmur, And He will hear my voice. Psalm 55:18 He will redeem my soul in peace from the battle which is against me, For they are many who strive with me. Psalm 55:19 God will hear and answer them-- Even the one who sits enthroned from of old-- Selah. With whom there is no change, And who do not fear God. Psalm 55:20 He has put forth his hands against those who were at peace with him; He has violated his covenant. Psalm 55:21 His speech was smoother than butter, But his heart was war; His words were softer than oil, Yet they were drawn swords. Psalm 55:22 Cast your burden upon the Lord and He will sustain you; He will never allow the righteous to be shaken. Psalm 55:23 But You, O God, will bring them down to the pit of destruction; Men of bloodshed and deceit will not live out half their days. But I will trust in You.
