    In God, whose word I praise—(A)
in God I trust and am not afraid.(B)
    What can mere mortals do to me?(C)

All day long they twist my words;(D)
    all their schemes are for my ruin.
They conspire,(E) they lurk,
    they watch my steps,(F)
    hoping to take my life.(G)
Because of their wickedness do not[a] let them escape;(H)
    in your anger, God, bring the nations down.(I)

Record my misery;
    list my tears on your scroll[b](J)
    are they not in your record?(K)
Then my enemies will turn back(L)
    when I call for help.(M)
    By this I will know that God is for me.(N)

10 In God, whose word I praise,
    in the Lord, whose word I praise—
11 in God I trust and am not afraid.
    What can man do to me?

  2. Psalm 56:8 Or misery; / put my tears in your wineskin

I trust in God and am not afraid;
    I praise him for what he has promised.
    What can a mere human being do to me?

My enemies make trouble for me all day long;
    they are always thinking up some way to hurt me!
They gather in hiding places
    and watch everything I do,
    hoping to kill me.
Punish[a] them, O God, for their evil;
    defeat those people in your anger!

You know how troubled I am;
    you have kept a record of my tears.
    Aren't they listed in your book?
The day I call to you,
    my enemies will be turned back.
I know this: God[b] is on my side—
10     the Lord, whose promises I praise.
11 In him I trust, and I will not be afraid.
    What can a mere human being do to me?
