^1 (c)Be gracious to me, O God, for man ^(d)tramples on me;
    all day long an attacker oppresses me;
² my enemies trample on me all day long,
    for many attack me proudly.
³ When I am afraid,
    I ^(e)put my trust in you.
⁴ In God, whose word I praise,
    in God I trust; ^(f)I shall not be afraid.
    What can flesh do to me?

⁵ All day long they injure my cause;^[b]
    all their thoughts are against me for evil.
⁶ They ^(g)stir up strife, they ^(h)lurk;
    they ⁽ⁱ⁾watch my steps,
    as they have waited for my life.
⁷ For their crime will they escape?
    ^(j)In wrath ^(k)cast down the peoples, O God!

⁸ You have kept count of my tossings;^{[c]
    (l)}put my tears in your bottle.
    ^(m)Are they not in your book?
⁹ Then my enemies will turn back
    ⁽ⁿ⁾in the day when I call.
    This I know, that^{[d] (o)}God is for me.
¹⁰ In God, whose word I praise,
    in the Lord, whose word I praise,
¹¹ in God I trust; ^(p)I shall not be afraid.
    What can man do to me?

¹² I must perform my ^(q)vows to you, O God;
    I will ^(r)render thank offerings to you.
^13 (s)For you have delivered my soul from death,
    yes, my feet from falling,
^(t)that I may walk before God
    ^(u)in the light of life.
