1 - To the Overseer. --`On the Dumb Dove far off.' --A secret treasure of David, in the Philistines' taking hold of him in Gath. Favour me, O God, for man swallowed me up, All the day fighting he oppresseth me,

2 - Mine enemies have swallowed up all the day, For many <FI>are<Fi> fighting against me, O most High,

3 - The day I am afraid I am confident toward Thee.

4 - In God I praise His word, in God I have trusted, I fear not what flesh doth to me.

5 - All the day they wrest my words, Concerning me all their thoughts <FI>are<Fi> for evil,

6 - They assemble, they hide, they watch my heels, When they have expected my soul.

7 - By iniquity they escape, In anger the peoples put down, O God.

8 - My wandering Thou hast counted, Thou--place Thou my tear in Thy bottle, Are they not in Thy book?

9 - Then turn back do mine enemies in the day I call. This I have known, that God <FI>is<Fi> for me.

10 - In God I praise the word, In Jehovah I praise the word.

11 - In God I trusted, I fear not what man doth to me,

12 - On me, O God, <FI>are<Fi> Thy vows, I repay thank-offerings to Thee.

13 - For Thou hast delivered my soul from death, Dost Thou not my feet from falling? To walk habitually before God in the light of the living!
