Psalm 64:1

Hear my voice, God, in my complaint. Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.

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

Hear, Yahweh, when I cry with my voice. Have mercy also on me, and answer me.

For I have heard the slander of many, terror on every side, while they conspire together against me, they plot to take away my life.

I sought Yahweh, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.

Listen to my prayer, God. Don't hide yourself from my supplication.

My enemies want to swallow me up all day long, for they are many who fight proudly against me.

Out of the depths I have cried to you, Yahweh.

Deliver me, Yahweh, from the evil man. Preserve me from the violent man;

Yahweh, I have called on you. Come to me quickly! Listen to my voice when I call to you.

Hear my prayer, Yahweh. Listen to my petitions. In your faithfulness and righteousness, relieve me.

I called on your name, Yahweh, out of the lowest dungeon.

The Lord said to Paul in the night by a vision, "Don't be afraid, but speak and don't be silent;

saying, 'Don't be afraid, Paul. You must stand before Caesar. Behold, God has granted you all those who sail with you.'
