¹ TO THE OVERSEER. [SET] ON "A SILENT DOVE FAR OFF." A MIKTAM OF DAVID, IN THE PHILISTINES' TAKING HOLD OF HIM IN GATH. Favor me, O God, for man swallowed me up, || All the day fighting he oppresses me,² My enemies have swallowed up all the day, || For many [are] fighting against me, O Most High,³ [In] the day I am afraid I am confident toward You.⁴ In God I praise His word, in God I have trusted, || I do not fear what flesh does to me.⁵ All the day they wrest my words, || All their thoughts [are] for evil concerning me,⁶ They assemble, they hide, they watch my heels, || When they have expected my soul.⁷ They escape by iniquity, || In anger put down the peoples, O God.

⁸ You have counted my wandering, || You place my tear in Your bottle, || Are they not in Your scroll?⁹ Then turn back my enemies in the day I call. This I have known, that God [is] for me.¹⁰ In God I praise the word, || In YHWH I praise the word.¹¹ In God I trusted, || I do not fear what man does to me,¹² On me, O God, [are] Your vows, || I repay thank-offerings to You.¹³ For You have delivered my soul from death, || Do You not [keep] my feet from falling? To habitually walk before God in the light of the living!
