Trust in God Concerning the Treachery of Friends

To the Chief Musician. With stringed instruments. A Contemplation of David.

1 Give ear to my prayer, O God,
And do not hide Yourself from my supplication.
2 Attend to me, and hear me;
I aam restless in my complaint, and moan noisily, 
3 Because of the voice of the enemy,
Because of the oppression of the wicked;
aFor they bring down trouble upon me,
And in wrath they hate me. 
4 aMy heart is severely pained within me,
And the terrors of death have fallen upon me.
