Psalms 55:2-8

²Attend unto me, and hear me! I wander about mourning and wailing,

³On account of the clamors of the enemy, On account of the violence of the wicked. For they bring evil upon me, And in wrath set themselves against me.

⁴My heart trembleth in my bosom, And the terrors of death have fallen upon me.

⁵Fear and trembling have seized me, And horror hath overwhelmed me.

⁶Then I say, O that I had wings like a dove! For then would I fly away, and be at rest.

⁷Behold, I would wander far away, And take up my abode in a wilderness. Pause.

⁸I would hasten away to a shelter From the rushing wind and tempest.
