1 Have pity on me, O God, because people are harassing me.All day long warriors oppress me.
2 All day long my enemies spy on me.They harass me.There are so many fighting against me.
3 Even when I am afraid, I still trust you.
4 I praise the word of God.I trust God.I am not afraid.What can mere flesh ⌊and blood⌋ do to me?
5 All day long my enemies twist my words.Their every thought is an evil plan against me.
6 They attack, and then they hide.They watch my every step as they wait to take my life.
7 With the wrong they do, can they escape?O God, angrily make the nations fall.
8 (You have kept a record of my wanderings.Put my tears in your bottle.They are already in your book.)
9 Then my enemies will retreat when I call ⌊to you⌋.This I know: God is on my side.
10 I praise the word of God.I praise the word of the Lord.
11 I trust God.I am not afraid.What can mortals do to me?
12 I am bound by my vows to you, O God.I will keep my vows by offering songs of thanksgiving to you.
13 You have rescued me from death.You have kept my feet from stumblingso that I could walk in your presence, in the light of life.
