Psalms 55:17-23

17MorningH1242, noonH6672, and nightH6153, I cry outH1993 in distressH7878, and He hearsH8085 my voiceH6963.18He redeemsH6299 my soulH5315 in peaceH7965 from the battleH7128 waged against me, even thoughH3588 manyH7227 opposeH1961 meH5978.19GodH410 will hearH8085 and humiliate themH6031— the One enthronedH3427 for the agesH6924— SelahH5542 becauseH834 they do notH369 changeH2487 and they have noH3808 fearH3372 of GodH430.

20My companion attacksH7971H3027 his friendsH7965;he violatesH2490 his covenantH1285.21His speechH6310 is smoothH2505 as butterH4260,but warH7128 is in his heartH3820.His wordsH1697 are softerH7401 than oilH8081,yet they areH1992 swords unsheathedH6609.
22CastH7993 your burdenH3053 uponH5921 the LORDH3068and HeH1931 will sustain youH3557;He will neverH3808H5769 letH5414 the righteousH6662 be shakenH4131.23But YouH859, O GodH430, will bring them downH3381to the PitH875 of destructionH7845;menH376 of bloodshedH1818 and deceitH4820will notH3808 live out halfH2673 their daysH3117.
But IH589 will trustH982 in You.
