04:18Psalm 55
04:22Listen O God to my prayer
04:24Do not ignore my appeal for mercy
04:28Pay attention to me and answer me
04:30I am upset and distressed
04:32I am beside myself
04:34Because of what the enemy says
04:36And of how they wicked pressure me
04:39For they hurl trouble down upon me
04:43And angrily attack me
04:46My heart beats violently within me
04:49The horrors of death overcome me
04:53Fear and panic overpower me
04:55Terror overwhelms me
04:59I say
05:00I wish I had wings like a dove
05:02I would fly away and settle in a safe place
05:07Look
05:08I will escape to a distant place
05:11I will stay in the wilderness
05:14I will hurry off to a place that is safe from the strong wind and the gale
05:21Confuse them O Lord
05:22Frustrate their plans
05:24For I see violence and conflict in the city
05:28Day and night
05:29They walk around its walls
05:31While wickedness and destruction are within it
05:36Disaster is within it
05:38Violence and deceit do not depart from its public square
05:43Indeed
05:44It is not an enemy who insults me
05:46Or else I could bear it
05:48It is not one who hates me arrogantly
05:51Who taunts me
05:52Or else I could hide from him
05:56But it is you a man like me
05:58My close friend in whom I confided
06:04We would share personal thoughts with each other
06:07In God's temple we would walk together
06:10Among the crowd
06:12May death destroy them
06:14May they go down alive in shale
06:16For evil is their dwelling place
06:18And in their midst
06:21As for me
06:22I will call out to the Lord
06:24And the Lord will deliver me
06:27During the evening, morning and the noontime
06:30I will lament and moan
06:32And he will hear me
06:34He will rescue me and protect me
06:37From those who attack me
06:38Even though they greatly outnumber me
06:43God, the one who has reigned as king
06:45From long ago
06:46Will hear and humiliate them
06:49They refuse to change
06:51And do not fear God
06:54He attacks them
06:55He breaks his solemn promises to them
06:59His words are as smooth as butter
07:02But he harbours animosity in his heart
07:06His words seem softer than oil
07:08But they are really like sharp swords
07:14Throw your burden upon the Lord
07:16And he will sustain you
07:18He will never allow the godly to be shaken
07:22But you, O Lord, will bring them down to the deep pit
07:27Violent and deceitful people
07:29Will not live even half a normal lifespan
07:33But as for me
07:34I trust in you
07:38Glory be to the Father
07:39And to the Son
07:40And to the Holy Spirit
07:42As it was in the beginning
07:44Is now and ever shall be
07:46World without end
07:48Amen
07:57God has destined us
07:59Not for wrath
08:00But for obtaining salvation

08:06So that whether we are awake or asleep
08:09We may live in him

08:30Which were the cause of your passion
