1TO 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, 2My 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. 4In God I praise His word, in God I have trusted, || I do not fear what flesh does to me. 5All the day they wrest my words, || All their thoughts [are] for evil concerning me, 6They assemble, they hide, they watch my heels, || When they have expected my soul. 7They escape by iniquity, || In anger put down the peoples, O God. 8You have counted my wandering, || You place my tear in Your bottle, || Are they not in Your scroll? 9Then turn back my enemies in the day I call. This I have known, that God [is] for me. 10In God I praise the word, || In YHWH I praise the word. 11In God I trusted, || I do not fear what man does to me, 12On me, O God, [are] Your vows, || I repay thank-offerings to You.
