Record my misery;
    list my tears on your scroll[a](A)
    are they not in your record?(B)
Then my enemies will turn back(C)
    when I call for help.(D)
    By this I will know that God is for me.(E)

10 In God, whose word I praise,
    in the Lord, whose word I praise—
11 in God I trust and am not afraid.
    What can man do to me?

12 I am under vows(F) to you, my God;
    I will present my thank offerings to you.
13 For you have delivered me from death(G)
    and my feet from stumbling,
that I may walk before God
    in the light of life.(H)

Footnotes

  1. Psalm 56:8 Or misery; / put my tears in your wineskin

Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book?

When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me.

10 In God will I praise his word: in the Lord will I praise his word.

11 In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.

12 Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee.

13 For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?
