Psalms 56 — Context

Have mercy on me, O God, for man is attempting my destruction; every day he makes cruel attacks against me.

My haters are ever ready to put an end to me; great numbers are lifting themselves up against me.

In the time of my fear, I will have faith in you.

In God will I give praise to his word; in God have I put my hope; I will have no fear of what flesh may do to me.

Every day they make wrong use of my words; all their thoughts are against me for evil.

They come together, they are waiting in secret places, they take note of my steps, they are waiting for my soul.

By evil-doing they will not get free from punishment. In wrath, O God, let the peoples be made low.
