Psalms 56:1

King James Version (1769 Blayney revision, with Apocrypha) · Berean Standard Bible

Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.
For the choirmaster. To the tune of “A Dove on Distant Oaks.” A Miktam (note: Miktam is probably a musical or liturgical term; used for Psalms 16 and 56–60.) of David, when the Philistines seized him in Gath. Be merciful to me, O God, for men are hounding me; all day they press their attack.
