Psalms 55:23 - Prayer Tents

55Hear my prayer, O God; don't turn away from my plea!H5329H5058H4905H1732H238H8605H430H5956H8467 2Listen to me and answer me; I am worn out by my worries.H7181H6030H7300H7879H1949 3I am terrified by the threats of my enemies, crushed by the oppression of the wicked. They bring trouble on me; they are angry with me and hate me.H6963H341H6440H6125H7563H4131H205H639H7852 4I am terrified, and the terrors of death crush me.H3820H2342H7130H367H4194H5307 5I am gripped by fear and trembling; I am overcome with horror.H3374H7461H935H6427H3680 6I wish I had wings like a dove. I would fly away and find rest.H559H5414H83H3123H5774H7931 7I would fly far away and make my home in the desert.H5074H7368H3885H4057H5542 8I would hurry and find myself a shelter from the raging wind and the storm.H2363H4655H7307H5584H5591 9Confuse the speech of my enemies, O Lord! I see violence and riots in the city,H1104H136H6385H3956H7200H2555H7379H5892 10surrounding it day and night, filling it with crime and trouble.H3119H3915H5437H2346H205H5999H7130 11There is destruction everywhere; the streets are full of oppression and fraud.H1942H7130H8496H4820H4185H7339 12If it were an enemy making fun of me, I could endure it; if it were an opponent boasting over me, I could hide myself from him.H341H2778H5375H8130H1431H5641 13But it is you, my companion, my colleague and close friend.H582H6187H441H3045 14We had intimate talks with each other and worshiped together in the Temple.H4985H5475H3162H1980H1004H430H7285 15May my enemies die before their time; may they go down alive into the world of the dead! Evil is in their homes and in their hearts.H4194H5377H3451H3381H2416H7585H7451H4033H7130 16But I call to the LORD God for help, and he will save me.H7121H430H3068H3467 17Morning, noon, and night my complaints and groans go up to him, and he will hear my voice.H6153H1242H6672H7878H1993H8085H6963 18He will bring me safely back from the battles that I fight against so many enemies.H6299H5315H7965H7128H7227 19God, who has ruled from eternity, will hear me and defeat them; for they refuse to change, and they do not fear him.H410H8085H6030H3427H6924H5542H2487H3372H430 20My former companion attacked his friends; he broke his promises.H7971H3027H7965H2490H1285 21His words were smoother than cream, but there was hatred in his heart; his words were as soothing as oil, but they cut like sharp swords.H6310H2505H4260H7128H3820H1697H7401H8081H6609 22Leave your troubles with the LORD, and he will defend you; he never lets honest people be defeated.H7993H3053H3068H3557H5769H5414H6662H4131 23But you, O God, will bring those murderers and liars to their graves before half their life is over. As for me, I will trust in you.H430H3381H875H7845H1818H4820H582H2673H3117H982
