Psa 56:2 My foes have trampled upon me all day long, For they are many who fight proudly against me.

Psa 56:3 When I am afraid, I will put my trust in You.

Psa 56:4 In God, whose word I praise, In God I have put my trust; I shall not be afraid. What can mere man do to me?

Psa 56:5 All day long they distort my words; All their thoughts are against me for evil.

Psa 56:6 They attack, they lurk, They watch my steps, As they have waited to take my life.

Psa 56:7 Because of wickedness, cast them forth, In anger put down the peoples, O God!

Psa 56:8 You have taken account of my wanderings; Put my tears in Your bottle. Are they not in Your book?

Psa 56:9 Then my enemies will turn back in the day when I call; This I know, that God is for me.

Psa 56:10 In God, whose word I praise, In the Lord, whose word I praise,

Psa 56:11 In God I have put my trust, I shall not be afraid. What can man do to me?

Psa 56:12 Your vows are binding upon me, O God; I will render thank offerings to You.

Psa 56:13 For You have delivered my soul from death, Indeed my feet from stumbling, So that I may walk before God In the light of the living.

--------

Psa 120:1 In my trouble I cried to the Lord, And He answered me.

Psa 120:2 Deliver my soul, O Lord, from lying lips, From a deceitful tongue.

Psa 120:3 What shall be given to you, and what more shall be done to you, You deceitful tongue?

Psa 120:4 Sharp arrows of the warrior, With the burning coals of the broom tree.

Psa 120:5 Woe is me, for I sojourn in Meshech, For I dwell among the tents of Kedar!

Psa 120:6 Too long has my soul had its dwelling With those who hate peace.

Psa 120:7 I am for peace, but when I speak, They are for war.

--------

Psa 140:1 Rescue me, O Lord, from evil men; Preserve me from violent men

Psa 140:2 Who devise evil things in their hearts; They continually stir up wars.

Psa 140:3 They sharpen their tongues as a serpent; Poison of a viper is under their lips. Selah.

Psa 140:4 Keep me, O Lord, from the hands of the wicked; Preserve me from violent men Who have purposed to trip up my feet.

Psa 140:5 The proud have hidden a trap for me, and cords; They have spread a net by the wayside; They have set snares for me. Selah.

Psa 140:6 I said to the Lord, "You are my God; Give ear, O Lord, to the voice of my supplications.

Psa 140:7 "O God the Lord, the strength of my salvation, You have covered my head in the day of battle.

Psa 140:8 "Do not grant, O Lord, the desires of the wicked; Do not promote his evil device, that they not be exalted. Selah.

Psa 140:9 "As for the head of those who surround me, May the mischief of their lips cover them.

Psa 140:10 "May burning coals fall upon them; May they be cast into the fire, Into deep pits from which they cannot rise.

Psa 140:11 "May a slanderer not be established in the earth; May evil hunt the violent man speedily."

Psa 140:12 I know that the Lord will maintain the cause of the afflicted And justice for the poor.

Psa 140:13 Surely the righteous will give thanks to Your name; The upright will dwell in Your presence.

--------

Psa 141:1 O Lord, I call upon You; hasten to me! Give ear to my voice when I call to You!

Psa 141:2 May my prayer be counted as incense before You; The lifting up of my hands as the evening offering.

Psa 141:3 Set a guard, O Lord, over my mouth; Keep watch over the door of my lips.

Psa 141:4 Do not incline my heart to any evil thing, To practice deeds of wickedness With men who do iniquity; And do not let me eat of their delicacies.

Psa 141:5 Let the righteous smite me in kindness and reprove me; It is oil upon the head; Do not let my head refuse it, For still my prayer is against their wicked deeds.

Psa 141:6 Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock, And they hear my words, for they are pleasant.

Psa 141:7 As when one plows and breaks open the earth, Our bones have been scattered at the mouth of Sheol.

Psa 141:8 For my eyes are toward You, O God, the Lord; In You I take refuge; do not leave me defenseless.

Psa 141:9 Keep me from the jaws of the trap which they have set for me, And from the snares of those who do iniquity.

Psa 141:10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, While I pass by safely.

--------

Psa 142:1 I cry aloud with my voice to the Lord; I make supplication with my voice to the Lord.

Psa 142:2 I pour out my complaint before Him; I declare my trouble before Him.

Psa 142:3 When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, You knew my path. In the way where I walk They have hidden a trap for me.

Psa 142:4 Look to the right and see; For there is no one who regards me; There is no escape for me; No one cares for my soul.

Psa 142:5 I cried out to You, O Lord; I said, "You are my refuge, My portion in the land of the living.

Psa 142:6 "Give heed to my cry, For I am brought very low; Deliver me from my persecutors, For they are too strong for me.

Psa 142:7 "Bring my soul out of prison, So that I may give thanks to Your name; The righteous will surround me, For You will deal bountifully with me."
