Psalms 55:1-5 For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. A Maskil of David. Listen to my prayer, O God, and do not ignore my plea.

MSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. A Maskil of David. Listen to my prayer, O God, and do not ignore my plea. ² Attend to me and answer me. I am restless in my complaint, and distraught ³ at the voice of the enemy, at the pressure of the wicked. For they release disaster upon me and revile me in their anger. ⁴ My heart murmurs within me, and the terrors of death assail me. ⁵ Fear and trembling grip me, and horror has overwhelmed me.
