[1] Have pity, God Most High! My enemies chase me all day. [2] Many of them are pursuing and attacking me, [3] but even when I am afraid, I keep on trusting you. [4] I praise your promises! I trust you and am not afraid. No one can harm me. [5] Enemies spend the whole day finding fault with me; all they think about is how to do me harm. [6] They attack from ambush, watching my every step and hoping to kill me. [7] They won't get away with these crimes, God, because when you get angry, you destroy people. [8] You have kept record of my days of wandering. You have stored my tears in your bottle and counted each of them. [9] When I pray, LORD God, my enemies will retreat, because I know for certain that you are with me. [10] I praise your promises! [11] I trust you and am not afraid. No one can harm me. [12] I will keep my promises to you, my God, and bring you gifts. [13] You protected me from death and kept me from stumbling, so that I would please you and follow the light that leads to life.
