561 Be gracious to me, O God , for man has trampled upon me; Fighting all day long he oppresses me. 2 My foes have trampled upon me all day long, For they are many who fight proudly against me. 3 When I am afraid , I will put my trust in You. 4 In God , whose word I praise , In God I have put my trust ; I shall not be afraid . What can mere man do to me? 5 All day long they distort my words ; All their thoughts are against me for evil . 6 They attack , they lurk , They watch my steps , As they have waited to take my life . 7 Because of wickedness , cast them forth , In anger put down the peoples , O God !
8 You have taken account of my wanderings ; Put my tears in Your bottle . Are they not in Your book ? 9 Then my enemies will turn back in the day when I call ; This I know , that God is for me. 10 In God , whose word I praise , In the Lord , whose word I praise , 11 In God I have put my trust , I shall not be afraid . What can man do to me? 12 Your vows are binding upon me, O God ; I will render thank offerings to You. 13 For You have delivered my soul from death , Indeed my feet from stumbling , So that I may walk before God In the light of the living .
