55:0 ^[332] KJV Chapter [56] To the chief Musician upon Jonath- elem- rechokim, Michtam of David, when the Philistines took him in Gath:

55:2 Mine enemies would daily swallow [me] up: for [they be] many that fight against me, O thou most High:

55:3 What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee:

55:4 In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me [5] Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts [are] against me for evil:

55:6 They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul:

55:7 Shall they escape by iniquity? in [thine] anger cast down the people, O God:

55:8 Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: [are they] not in thy book:

55:9 When I cry [unto thee], then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God [is] for me:

55:10 In God will I praise [his] word: in the LORD will I praise [his] word:

55:11 In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me:

55:12 Thy vows [are] upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee:

55:13 For thou hast delivered my soul from death: [wilt] not [thou deliver] my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living:
