20:12 O Lord who rules over all, 1 you test and prove the righteous.
You see into people’s hearts and minds. 2
Pay them back for what they have done
because I trust you to vindicate my cause.
55:16 As for me, I will call out to God,
and the Lord will deliver me.
55:17 During the evening, morning, and noontime
I will lament and moan, 3
and he will hear 4 me. 5
For the music director; a psalm of David.
64:1 Listen to me, 7 O God, as I offer my lament!
Protect 8 my life from the enemy’s terrifying attacks. 9
64:2 Hide me from the plots of evil men,
from the crowd of evildoers. 10
64:3 They 11 sharpen their tongues like a sword;
they aim their arrow, a slanderous charge, 12
64:4 in order to shoot down the innocent 13 in secluded places.
They shoot at him suddenly and are unafraid of retaliation. 14
For the music director; according to the yonath-elem-rechovim style; 16 a prayer 17 of David, written when the Philistines captured him in Gath. 18
56:1 Have mercy on me, O God, for men are attacking me! 19
All day long hostile enemies 20 are tormenting me. 21
56:2 Those who anticipate my defeat 22 attack me all day long.
Indeed, 23 many are fighting against me, O Exalted One. 24
56:3 When 25 I am afraid,
I trust in you.
109:4 They repay my love with accusations, 26
but I continue to pray. 27
109:28 They curse, but you will bless. 28
When they attack, they will be humiliated, 29
but your servant will rejoice.
7:8 My enemies, 30 do not gloat 31 over me!
Though I have fallen, I will get up.
Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light. 32
6:12 Now 35 it was during this time that Jesus 36 went out to the mountain 37 to pray, and he spent all night 38 in prayer to God. 39
