Book 19 : PSALMS - Chapter 055
055:001
Attend unto me, and hear me: I mourn in my complaint, and make
a noise
055:002
Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression
of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath
they hate me
055:003
My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of death
are fallen upon me
055:004
Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and horror hath
overwhelmed me
055:005
And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I
fly away, and be at rest
055:006
Lo, then would I wander far off, and remain in the wilderness.
Selah
055:007
I would hasten my escape from the windy storm and tempest
055:008
Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues: for I have seen
violence and strife in the city
055:009
Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof:
mischief also and sorrow are in the midst of it
055:010
Wickedness is in the midst thereof: deceit and guile depart
not from her streets
055:011
For it was not an enemy that reproached me; then I could have
borne it: neither was it he that hated me that did magnify
himself against me; then I would have hid myself from him
055:012
But it was thou, a man mine equal, my guide, and mine
acquaintance
055:013
We took sweet counsel together, and walked unto the house of
God in company
055:014
Let death seize upon them, and let them go down quick into
hell: for wickedness is in their dwellings, and among them
055:015
As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me
055:016
Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud:
and he shall hear my voice
055:017
He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle that was
against me: for there were many with me
055:018
God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abideth of old.
Selah. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not
God
055:019
He hath put forth his hands against such as be at peace with
him: he hath broken his covenant
055:020
The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was
in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they
drawn swords
055:021
Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he
shall never suffer the righteous to be moved
055:022
But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of
destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half
their days; but I will trust in thee
