For the music director, to be accompanied by stringed instruments; a well-written song by David. Listen, O God, to my prayer! Do not ignore my appeal for mercy!
Pay attention to me and answer me! I am so upset and distressed, I am beside myself,
because of what the enemy says, and because of how the wicked pressure me, for they hurl trouble down upon me and angrily attack me.
My heart beats violently within me; the horrors of death overcome me.
Fear and panic overpower me; terror overwhelms me.
I say,“I wish I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and settle in a safe place!
