Psalms 55:1-8

112Listen to my prayer, God; And 3do not hide Yourself from my pleading.2Give Your 4attention to me and answer me; I am restless in my 5complaint and 67severely distracted,3Because of the voice of the enemy, Because of the 8pressure of the wicked; For they 9bring down 10trouble upon me And in anger they 11hold a grudge against me.

4My 12heart is in anguish within me, And the terrors of 13death have fallen upon me.5Fear and 14trembling come upon me, And 1516horror has 17overwhelmed me.6I said, “Oh, that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and 1819be at rest.7Behold, I would flee far away, I would 20spend my nights in the wilderness. Selah8I would hurry to my place of refuge From the 21stormy wind and heavy gale.”
