Psalm 55

¹⁸ He redeems my soul in peace from the battle waged against me, even though many oppose me.

¹⁹ God will hear and humiliate them—the One enthroned for the ages—Selah because they do not change and they have no fear of God.

²⁰ My companion attacks his friends; he violates his covenant.

²¹ His speech is smooth as butter, but war is in his heart. His words are softer than oil, yet they are swords unsheathed.

²² Cast your burden upon the LORD and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous be shaken.
