1 O God, be gracious to me, for people trample upon me, all the day righting and pressing me.
2 All the day enemies trample me; many there be who contend with me bitterly.
3 In the day of my terror I trust in you.
4 In God I maintain my cause, in God I fearlessly trust. What can flesh do to me?
5 They torture me all the day, they ceaselessly plan to hurt me,
6 banded together in secret, watching my every step, as those who hope for my death.
7 Pay them out for their sin, O God, hurl down the strong in your anger.
8 You yourself count my wanderings. Put in your bottle my tears are they not in your book?
9 Then shall my foes be turned back in the day that I call. Of this I am sure, because God is for me.
10 In God I maintain my cause, in the Lord I maintain my cause.
11 In God I fearlessly trust, what can people do to me?
12 Your vows are upon me, O God, I will render thank-offerings to you;
13 because you have saved me from death, my feet from stumbling, to the end that I walk before God in the light of the living.
