When I am afraid,
I will trust in You.

You Yourself have recorded my wanderings.
Put my tears in Your bottle.
Are they not in Your records?

For the choir director: according to “A Silent Dove Far Away.” A Davidic Miktam. When the Philistines seized him in Gath.Be gracious to me, God, for man tramples me;
he fights and oppresses me all day long.

In God, whose word I praise,
in God I trust; I will not fear.
What can man do to me?

Then my enemies will retreat on the day when I call.
This I know: God is for me.

in God I trust; I will not fear.
What can man do to me?

For You delivered me from death,
even my feet from stumbling,
to walk before God in the light of life.

In God, whose word I praise,
in the Lord, whose word I praise,

I am obligated by vows to You, God;
I will make my thank offerings to You.

They twist my words all day long;
all their thoughts against me are evil.

My adversaries trample me all day,
for many arrogantly fight against me.

They stir up strife, they lurk;
they watch my steps
while they wait to take my life.

Will they escape in spite of such sin?
God, bring down the nations in wrath.
