Psalm 55:1-3
Lexham English Bible

Betrayal of a Friend and Trust in God

For the music director, with stringed instruments.

A maskil of David.[a]

55 Give ear, O God, to my prayer,
and do not hide yourself from my plea.
2 Attend to me and answer me.
I am restless in my lamenting and I groan,
3 because of the voice of an enemy,
because of the oppression of the wicked,
because they bring down evil on me,
and in anger they hold a grudge against me.
