56:1  For the leader. Set to “The Silent Dove in the Distance.” By David; a mikhtam, when the P’lishtim captured him in Gat:
56:2  Show me favor, God; for people are trampling me down — all day they fight and press on me.
56:3  Those who are lying in wait for me would trample on me all day. For those fighting against me are many. Most High,
56:4  when I am afraid, I put my trust in you.
56:5  In God — I praise his word — in God I trust; I have no fear; what can human power do to me?
56:6  All day long they twist my words; their only thought is to harm me.
56:7  They gather together and hide themselves, spying on my movements, hoping to kill me.
56:8  Because of their crime, they cannot escape; in anger, God, strike down the peoples.
56:9  You have kept count of my wanderings; store my tears in your water-skin — aren’t they already recorded in your book?
56:10  Then my enemies will turn back on the day when I call; this I know: that God is for me.
56:11  In God — I praise his word — in Adonai — I praise his word —
56:12  in God I trust; I have no fear; what can mere humans do to me?
56:13  God, I have made vows to you; I will fulfill them with thank offerings to you.
