New Living Translation

Psalms 55:1-7 New Living Translation (NLT)

1. Listen to my prayer, O God.Do not ignore my cry for help!

2. Please listen and answer me,for I am overwhelmed by my troubles.

3. My enemies shout at me,making loud and wicked threats.They bring trouble on meand angrily hunt me down.

4. My heart pounds in my chest.The terror of death assaults me.

5. Fear and trembling overwhelm me,and I can’t stop shaking.

6. Oh, that I had wings like a dove;then I would fly away and rest!

7. I would fly far awayto the quiet of the wilderness.Interlude
