55:2. Have mercy on me, O God, for man hath trodden me under foot; all
the day long he hath afflicted me fighting against me.
55:3. My enemies have trodden on me all the day long; for they are many
that make war against me.
55:4. From the height of the day I shall fear: but I will trust in thee.
The height of the day... That is, even at noonday, when the sun is the
highest, I am still in danger.
55:5. In God I will praise my words, in God I have put my trust: I will
not fear what flesh can do against me.
My words... The words or promises God has made in my favour.
55:6. All the day long they detested my words: all their thoughts were
against me unto evil.
55:7. They will dwell and hide themselves: they will watch my heel. As
they have waited for my soul,
55:8. For nothing shalt thou save them: in thy anger thou shalt break
the people in pieces. O God,
For nothing shalt thou save them... That is, since they lie in wait to
ruin my soul, thou shalt for no consideration favour or assist them, but
execute thy justice upon them.
55:9. I have declared to thee my life: thou hast set me tears in thy
sight, As also in thy promise.
55:10. Then shall my enemies be turned back. In what day soever I shall
call upon thee, behold I know thou art my God.
55:11. In God will I praise the word, in the Lord will I praise his
speech. In God have I hoped, I will not fear what man can do to me.
55:12. In me, O God, are vows to thee, which I will lpay, praises to
thee:
55:13. Because thou hast delivered my soul from death, my feet from
falling: that I may please in the sight of God, in the light of the
living.
Psalms Chapter 56
Miserere mei, Deus. The prophet prays in his affliction, and praises God
for his delivery.
56:1. Unto the end, destroy not, for David, for an inscription of a
title, when he fled from Saul into the cave. [1 Kings 24.]
Destroy not... Suffer me not to be destroyed.
56:2. Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy on me: for my soul trusteth in
thee. And in the shadow of thy wings will I hope, until iniquity pass
away.
56:3. I will cry to God the most high; to God who hath done good to me.
56:4. He hath sent from heaven and delivered me: he hath made them a
reproach that trod upon me. God hath sent his mercy and his truth,
56:5. And he hath delivered my soul from the midst of the young lions. I
slept troubled. The sons ofmen, whose teeth are weapons and arrows, and
their tongue a sharp sword.
56:6. Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, and thy glory above all
the earth.
56:7. They prepared a snare for my feet; and they bowed down my soul.
They dug a pit before my face, and they are fallen into it.
56:8. My heart is ready, O God, my heart is ready: I will sing, and
rehearse a psalm.
56:9. Arise, O my glory, arise psaltery and harp: I will arise early.
56:10. I will give praise to thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing
a psalm to thee among the nations.
