Psalms 56:2
Jewish Publication Society 1917 · Berean Standard Bible
Be gracious unto me, O God, for man would swallow me up; All the day he fighting oppresseth me.
56:1
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.
