Psalms 55
- 1 Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not yourself from my supplication.
- 2 Attend to me, and hear me: I mourn in my complaint, and make a noise;
- 3 Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity on me, and in wrath they hate me.
- 4 My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of death are fallen on me.
- 5 Fearfulness and trembling are come on me, and horror has overwhelmed me.
- 6 And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest.
- 7 See, then would I wander far off, and remain in the wilderness. Selah.
- 8 I would hasten my escape from the windy storm and tempest.
- 9 Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues: for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
- 10 Day and night they go about it on the walls thereof: mischief also and sorrow are in the middle of it.
- 11 Wickedness is in the middle thereof: deceit and guile depart not from her streets.
- 12 For it was not an enemy that reproached me; then I could have borne it: neither was it he that hated me that did magnify himself against me; then I would have hid myself from him:
- 13 But it was you, a man my equal, my guide, and my acquaintance.
- 14 We took sweet counsel together, and walked to the house of God in company.
- 15 Let death seize on them, and let them go down quick into hell: for wickedness is in their dwellings, and among them.
- 16 As for me, I will call on God; and the LORD shall save me.
- 17 Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice.
- 18 He has delivered my soul in peace from the battle that was against me: for there were many with me.
- 19 God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that stays of old. Selah. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.
- 20 He has put forth his hands against such as be at peace with him: he has broken his covenant.
- 21 The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords.
- 22 Cast your burden on the LORD, and he shall sustain you: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
- 23 But you, O God, shall bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but I will trust in you.

American King James Version (akjv - 2.1)
2023-12-27English (en)
American King James Version
Produced by Stone Engelbrite
This is a new translation of the Bible, based on the original King James Version. It is a simple word for word update from the King James English. I have taken care to change nothing doctrinely, but to simply update the spelling and vocabulary. I have not changed the grammar because that could alter it doctrinely.
I am hereby putting the American King James version of the Bible into the public domain on November 8, 1999.
