Psalm 64:1

[To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.] Hear my voice, O God, in my prayer: preserve my life from fear of the enemy.

Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of your wings,

Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.

For I have heard the slander of many: fear was on every side: while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life.

I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.

[To the Chief Musician on neginoth, a maschil. A Song of David.] Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not yourself from my supplication.

My enemies would daily swallow me up: for they are many that fight against me, O most High.

[A song of ascents.] Out of the depths have I cried unto you, O LORD.

[To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.] Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man: preserve me from the violent man;

[A Psalm of David.] LORD, I cry unto you: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto you.

[A Psalm of David.] Hear my prayer, O LORD, give ear to my supplications: in your faithfulness answer me, and in your righteousness.

I called upon your name, O LORD, out of the lowest dungeon.

Then spoke the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not your peace:

Saying, Fear not, Paul; you must be brought before Caesar: and, lo, God has given you all them that sail with you.
