Psalms 56:3

Psalm 56

For the director of music. To the tune of “A Dove on Distant Oaks.” Of David. A miktam.Title: Probably a literary or musical term When the Philistines had seized him in Gath.

1Be merciful to me, O God, for men hotly pursue me;
all day long they press their attack.

2My slanderers pursue me all day long;
many are attacking me in their pride.

3When I am afraid,
I will trust in you.

4In God, whose word I praise,
in God I trust; I will not be afraid.
What can mortal man do to me?

5All day long they twist my words;
they are always plotting to harm me.

6They conspire, they lurk,
they watch my steps,
eager to take my life.

7On no account let them escape;
in your anger, O God, bring down the nations.

8Record my lament;
list my tears on your scrollOr / put my tears in your wineskin—
are they not in your record?

9Then my enemies will turn back
when I call for help.
By this I will know that God is for me.

10In God, whose word I praise,
in the LORD, whose word I praise—

11in God I trust; I will not be afraid.
What can man do to me?

12I am under vows to you, O God;
I will present my thank offerings to you.

13For you have delivered meOr my soul from death
and my feet from stumbling,
that I may walk before God
in the light of life.Or the land of the living

Trust in the Lord always, especially when you are afraid or in a time of need. Don't worry, God will provide anything you need.
