1. Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresses me.
2. My enemies would daily swallow me up: for they are many that fight against me, O most High.
3. Whenever I am afraid, I will trust in you.
4. In God, I will praise his word, in God, I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.
5. Every day they twist my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil.
