¹ To the Overseer. -- `On the Dumb Dove far off.' -- A secret treasure of David, in the Philistines' taking hold of him in Gath. Favour me, O God, for man swallowed me up, All the day fighting he oppresseth me,² Mine enemies have swallowed up all the day, For many [are] fighting against me, O most High,³ The day I am afraid I am confident toward Thee.⁴ In God I praise His word, in God I have trusted, I fear not what flesh doth to me.⁵ All the day they wrest my words, Concerning me all their thoughts [are] for evil,⁶ They assemble, they hide, they watch my heels, When they have expected my soul.⁷ By iniquity they escape, In anger the peoples put down, O God.

⁸ My wandering Thou hast counted, Thou -- place Thou my tear in Thy bottle, Are they not in Thy book?⁹ Then turn back do mine enemies in the day I call. This I have known, that God [is] for me.¹⁰ In God I praise the word, In Jehovah I praise the word.¹¹ In God I trusted, I fear not what man doth to me,¹² On me, O God, [are] Thy vows, I repay thank-offerings to Thee.¹³ For Thou hast delivered my soul from death, Dost Thou not my feet from falling? To walk habitually before God in the light of the living!
