Psalm chapter 55

Bible Version
Book
Chapter
1
To the chiefH5329 MusicianH5329 on Neginoth,H5058 Maschil,H4905 A Psalm of David.H1732 Give earH238 to my prayer,H8605 O God;H430 and hideH5956 not yourself from my supplication.H8467
2
AttendH7181 to me, and hearH6030 me: I mournH7300 in my complaint,H7879 and make a noise;H1949
3
Because of the voiceH6963 of the enemy,H341 becauseH6440 of the oppressionH6125 of the wicked:H7563 for they castH4131 iniquityH205 on me, and in wrathH639 they hateH7852 me.
4
My heartH3820 is sore painedH2342 withinH7130 me: and the terrorsH367 of deathH4194 are fallenH5307 on me.
5
FearfulnessH3374 and tremblingH7460 are comeH935 on me, and horrorH6427 has overwhelmedH3680 me.
6
And I said,H559 Oh that I had wingsH83 like a dove!H3123 for then would I flyH5774 away, and be at rest.H7931
7
See,H2009 then would I wanderH5074 farH7368 off, and remainH3885 in the wilderness.H4057 Selah.H5542
8
I would hastenH2363 my escapeH4655 from the windyH7307 stormH5584 and tempest.H5591
9
Destroy,H1104 O Lord,H136 and divideH6385 their tongues:H3956 for I have seenH7200 violenceH2555 and strifeH7379 in the city.H5892
10
DayH3119 and nightH3915 they goH5437 aboutH5437 it on the wallsH2346 thereof: mischiefH205 also and sorrowH5999 are in the middleH7130 of it.
11
WickednessH1942 is in the middleH7130 thereof: deceitH8496 and guileH4820 departH4185 not from her streets.H7339
12
For it was not an enemyH341 that reproachedH2778 me; then I could have borneH5375 it: neitherH3808 was it he that hatedH8130 me that did magnifyH1431 himself againstH5921 me; then I would have hidH5641 myself from him:
13
But it was you, a manH582 my equal,H6187 my guide,H441 and my acquaintance.H3045
14
We took sweetH4985 counselH5475 together,H3162 and walkedH1980 to the houseH1004 of GodH430 in company.H7285
15
Let deathH4194 seizeH3451 on them, and let them goH3381 downH3381 quickH2416 into hell:H7585 for wickednessH7451 is in their dwellings,H4033 and amongH7130 them.
16
As for me, I will callH7121 on God;H430 and the LORDH3068 shall saveH3467 me.
17
Evening,H6153 and morning,H1242 and at noon,H6672 will I pray,H7878 and cryH1993 aloud:H1993 and he shall hearH8085 my voice.H6963
18
He has deliveredH6299 my soulH5315 in peaceH7965 from the battleH7128 that was against me: for there were manyH7227 with me.
19
GodH410 shall hear,H8085 and afflictH6031 them, even he that staysH3427 of old.H6924 Selah.H5542 BecauseH834 they have noH369 changes,H2487 therefore they fearH3372 not God.H430
20
He has putH7971 forthH7971 his handsH3027 against such as be at peaceH7965 with him: he has brokenH2490 his covenant.H1285
21
The words of his mouthH6310 were smootherH2505 than butter,H4260 but warH7128 was in his heart:H3820 his wordsH1697 were softerH7401 than oil,H8081 yet were they drawnH6609 swords.H6609
22
CastH7993 your burdenH3053 on the LORD,H3068 and he shall sustainH3557 you: he shall neverH3808 H5769 sufferH5414 the righteousH6662 to be moved.H4131
23
But you, O God,H430 shall bringH3381 them downH3381 into the pitH875 of destruction:H7845 bloodyH1818 and deceitfulH4820 menH582 shall not live out halfH2673 their days;H3117 but I will trustH982 in you.
