New King James Version

Psalms 55:1-5 New King James Version (NKJV)

1. Give ear to my prayer, O God,And do not hide Yourself from my supplication.

2. Attend to me, and hear me;I am restless in my complaint, and moan noisily,

3. Because of the voice of the enemy,Because of the oppression of the wicked;For they bring down trouble upon me,And in wrath they hate me.

4. My heart is severely pained within me,And the terrors of death have fallen upon me.

5. Fearfulness and trembling have come upon me,And horror has overwhelmed me.
