(56) For the end, concerning the people that were removed from the sanctuary, by David for a memorial, when the Philistines caught him in Geth. Have mercy upon me, O God; for man has trodden me down; all the day long he warring has afflicted me.

Mine enemies have trodden me down all the day from the dawning of the day; for there are many warring against me.

They shall be afraid, but I will trust in you.

In God I will praise my words; all the day have I hoped in God; I will not fear what flesh shall do to me.

All the day long they have abominated my words; all their devices [are] against me for evil.

They will dwell near and hide [themselves]; they will watch my steps, accordingly as I have waited patiently in my soul.

You will on no account save them; you will bring down the people in wrath.

O God, I have declared my life to you; you have set my tears before you, even according to your promise.

Mine enemies shall be turned back, in the day wherein I shall call upon you; behold, I know that you are my God.

In God, will I praise [his] word; in the Lord will I praise [his] saying.

I have hoped in God; I will not be afraid of what man shall do to me.

The vows of your praise, O God, which I will pay, are upon me.

For you have delivered my soul from death, and my feet from sliding, that I should be well-pleasing before God in the land of the living.
