1 God, show me your favor. Men are chasing me. All day long they keep attacking me.
2 Those who tell lies about me chase me all day long. Many proud people are attacking me.
3 When I'm afraid, I will trust in you.
4 I trust in God. I praise his word. I trust in God. I will not be afraid. What can people do to me?
5 All day long they twist my words. They are always making plans to harm me.
6 They get together and hide. They watch my steps. They hope to kill me.
7 Make sure you don't let them escape. God, bring down the nations in your anger.
8 Write down my poem of sadness. List my tears on your scroll. Aren't you making a record of them?
9 My enemies will turn back when I call out to you for help. Then I will know that God is on my side.
10 I trust in God. I praise his word. I trust in the Lord. I praise his word.
11 I trust in God. I will not be afraid. What can mere men do to me?
12 God, I have made promises to you. I will bring my thank offerings to you.
