Psalms 55:1-8

11Listen to my prayer, O God,and do not ignore my plea.2Attend to me and answer me.I am restless in my complaint,and distraught 3at the voice of the enemy,at the pressure of the wicked.For they bring down disaster upon meand resent me in their anger.
4My heart pounds within me,and the terrors of death assail me.5Fear and trembling grip me,and horror has overwhelmed me.6I said, “Oh, that I had wings like a dove!I would fly away and find rest.7How far away I would flee!In the wilderness I would remain.Selah8I would hurry to my shelter,far from this raging tempest.”
