not one. 5 Are not they without understanding, that work wickedness: eating up my people as if they would eat bread? they have not called upon God. 6 They were afraid where no fear was: for God hath broken the bones of him that besieged thee; thou hast put them to confusion, because God hath despised them. 7 O that the salvation were given unto Israel out of Sion: O that the Lord would deliver his people out of captivity! 8 Then should Jacob rejoice: and Israel should be right glad. PSALM 54. _Deus, in Nomine_. Save me, O God, for thy Name's sake: and avenge me in thy strength. 2 Hear my prayer, O God: and hearken unto the words of my mouth. 3 For strangers are risen up against me: and tyrants, which have not God before their eyes, seek after my soul. 4 Behold, God is my helper: the Lord is with them that uphold my soul. 5 He shall reward evil unto mine enemies: destroy thou them in thy truth. 6 An offering of a free heart will I give thee, and praise thy Name, O Lord: because it is so comfortable. 7 For he hath delivered me out of all my trouble: and mine eye hath seen his desire upon mine enemies. PSALM 55. _Exaudi, Deus_. Hear my prayer, O God: and hide not thyself from my petition. 2 Take heed unto me, and hear me: how I mourn in my prayer, and am vexed. 3 The enemy crieth so, and the ungodly cometh on so fast: for they are minded to do me some mischief; so maliciously are they set against me. 4 My heart is disquieted within me: and the fear of death is fallen upon me. 5 Tearfulness and trembling are come upon me: and an horrible dread hath overwhelmed me. 6 And I said, O that I had wings like a dove: for then would I flee away, and be at rest. 7 Lo, then would I get me away far off: and remain in the wilderness. 8 I would make haste to escape: because of the stormy wind and tempest. 9 Destroy their tongues, O Lord, and divide them: for I have spied unrighteousness and strife in the city. 10 Day and night they go about within the walls thereof: mischief also and sorrow are in the midst of it. 11 Wickedness is therein: deceit and guile go not out of her streets. 12 For it is not an open enemy, that hath done me this dishonour: for then I could have borne it. 13 Neither was it mine adversary, that did magnify himself against me: for then peradventure I would have hid myself from him. 14 But it was even thou, my companion: my guide, and mine own familiar
