Psalms 55:1-8

1Give ear to my prayer, O God;And hide not thyself from my supplication.2Attend unto me, and answer me:I am restless in my complaint, and moan,3Because of the voice of the enemy,Because of the oppression of the wicked;For they cast iniquity upon me,And in anger they persecute me.4My heart is sore pained within me:And the terrors of death are fallen upon me.5Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me,And horror hath overwhelmed me.6And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove!Then would I fly away, and be at rest.7Lo, then would I wander far off,I would lodge in the wilderness.[Selah8I would haste me to a shelterFrom the stormy wind and tempest.
