Bible. Psalms
19:055:004 My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of death
are fallen upon me.
19:055:005 Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and horror hath
overwhelmed me.
19:055:006 And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I
fly away, and be at rest.
19:055:007 Lo, then would I wander far off, and remain in the wilderness.
Selah.
19:055:008 I would hasten my escape from the windy storm and tempest.
19:055:009 Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues: for I have seen
violence and strife in the city.
19:055:010 Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof:
mischief also and sorrow are in the midst of it.
19:055:011 Wickedness is in the midst thereof: deceit and guile depart
not from her streets.
19:055:012 For it was not an enemy that reproached me; then I could have
borne it: neither was it he that hated me that did magnify
himself against me; then I would have hid myself from him:
19:055:013 But it was thou, a man mine equal, my guide, and mine
acquaintance.
19:055:014 We took sweet counsel together, and walked unto the house of
God in company.
19:055:015 Let death seize upon them, and let them go down quick into
hell: for wickedness is in their dwellings, and among them.
19:055:016 As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me.
19:055:017 Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud:
and he shall hear my voice.
19:055:018 He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle that was
against me: for there were many with me.
19:055:019 God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abideth of old.
Selah. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not
God.
19:055:020 He hath put forth his hands against such as be at peace with
him: he hath broken his covenant.
19:055:021 The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was
in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they
drawn swords.
19:055:022 Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he
shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
19:055:023 But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of
destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half
their days; but I will trust in thee.
19:056:001 Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he
fighting daily oppresseth me.
19:056:002 Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that
fight against me, O thou most High.
19:056:003 What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.
19:056:004 In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I
will not fear what flesh can do unto me.
19:056:005 Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against
me for evil.
