- 0:04Speaker 1: Psalm 56 For the cheap musician, to the tune of
- 0:09Speaker 1: silent dove in distant lands, a poem by David, when
- 0:14Speaker 1: the Philistines seized him in Gath. Be merciful to me, God,
- 0:19Speaker 1: for man wants to swallow me up. All day long
- 0:23Speaker 1: he attacks and oppresses me. My enemies want to swallow
- 0:27Speaker 1: me up all day long, for they are many who
- 0:30Speaker 1: fight proudly against me. WHEN I AM AFRAID, I WILL
- 0:34Speaker 1: PUT MY TRUST IN YOU. IN GOD I PRAISE HIS WORD,
- 0:38Speaker 1: IN GOD I PUT MY TRUST. I WILL NOT BE AFRAID,
- 0:42Speaker 1: WHAT CAN FLESH DO TO ME? ALL DAY LONG THEY
- 0:45Speaker 1: TWIST MY WORDS, ALL THEIR THOUGHTS ARE AGAINST ME FOR EVIL.
- 0:50Speaker 1: THEY CONSPIRE AND LURK, WATCHING MY STEPS, THEY ARE EAGER
- 0:53Speaker 1: TO TAKE MY LIFE. SHALL THEY ESCAPE BY INIQUITY, AND
- 0:57Speaker 1: ANGER CAST DOWN THE PEOPLES, GOD? You number my wanderings.
- 1:02Speaker 1: You put my tears into your bottle. Aren't they in
- 1:05Speaker 1: your book? Then my enemies shall turn back in the
- 1:09Speaker 1: day that I call. I know this, that God is
- 1:12Speaker 1: for me. In God I will praise his word. In
- 1:15Speaker 1: Yahweh I will praise his word. I have put my
- 1:19Speaker 1: trust in God. I will not be afraid. What can
- 1:22Speaker 1: man do to me? Your vows are on me, God.
- 1:26Speaker 1: I will give thank offerings to you. For you have
- 1:29Speaker 1: delivered my soul from death and prevented my feet from falling,
- 1:33Speaker 1: that I may walk before God in the light of
- 1:36Speaker 1: the living.
