Psalm 56:1-3
Contemporary English Version

(For the music leader. To the tune “A Silent Dove in the Distance.”[a] A special psalm by David when the Philistines captured him in Gath.)

A Prayer of Trust in God

1 (A) Have pity, God Most High!
    My enemies chase me all day.
2 Many of them are pursuing
    and attacking me,
3 but even when I am afraid,
    I keep on trusting you.
