Psalms 55

Don’t hide yourself from my supplication.

and moan

In anger they hold a grudge against me.

The terrors of death have fallen on me.

Horror has overwhelmed me.

Then I would fly away, and be at rest.

I would lodge in the wilderness.”

“I would hurry to a shelter from the stormy wind and storm.”

for I have seen violence and strife in the city.

Malice and abuse are also within her.

Threats and lies don’t depart from her streets.

then I would have hidden myself from him.

my companion, and my familiar friend.

We walked in God’s house with company.

For wickedness is among them, in their dwelling.

Yahweh will save me.

He will hear my voice.

although there are many who oppose me.

who don’t fear God.

He has violated his covenant.

yet they were drawn swords.

He will never allow the righteous to be moved.

but I will trust in you.
