1. Be gracious to me, O God, because humankind has trampled me; fighting all the day he oppresses me.
2. My enemies trample all day, because many are attacking me proudly.
3. When I fear, I trust you.
4. God, whose word I praise, God I trust; I do not fear. What can mere flesh do to me?
5. All day they twist my words; all their thoughts are against me for evil.
6. They attack, they hide, they watch my steps, as they lie in wait for my life.
