56:1 To
the
Overseer.
--`On
the
Dumb
Dove
far
off.'
--A
secret
treasure
of
David,
in
the
Philistines'
taking
hold
of
him
in
Gath.
Favour
me,
O
God,
for
man
swallowed
me
up,
All
the
day
fighting
he
oppresseth
me,
56:2 Mine
enemies
have
swallowed
up
all
the
day,
For
many
[are]
fighting
against
me,
O
most
High,
56:3 The
day
I
am
afraid
I
am
confident
toward
Thee.
56:4 In
God
I
praise
His
word,
in
God
I
have
trusted,
I
fear
not
what
flesh
doth
to
me.
56:5 All
the
day
they
wrest
my
words,
Concerning
me
all
their
thoughts
[are]
for
evil,
56:6 They
assemble,
they
hide,
they
watch
my
heels,
When
they
have
expected
my
soul.
56:7 By
iniquity
they
escape,
In
anger
the
peoples
put
down,
O
God.
56:8 My
wandering
Thou
hast
counted,
Thou--place
Thou
my
tear
in
Thy
bottle,
Are
they
not
in
Thy
book
56:9 Then
turn
back
do
mine
enemies
in
the
day
I
call.
This
I
have
known,
that
God
[is]
for
me.
56:10 In
God
I
praise
the
word,
In
Jehovah
I
praise
the
word.
56:11 In
God
I
trusted,
I
fear
not
what
man
doth
to
me,
56:12 On
me,
O
God,
[are]
Thy
vows,
I
repay
thank-offerings
to
Thee.
56:13 For
Thou
hast
delivered
my
soul
from
death,
Dost
Thou
not
my
feet
from
falling
To
walk
habitually
before
God
in
the
light
of
the
living!
