The Epistle of Barnabas
EpiBar
[For the end, concerning the people that were removed from the sanctuary, by David for a memorial, when the Philistines caught him in Geth.]
[1]Have mercy upon me, O God; for man has trodden me down; all the day long he warring has afflicted me. [No book]
[2]Mine enemies have trodden me down all the day from the dawning of the day; for there are many warring against me. [No book]
[3]They shall be afraid, but I will trust in thee. [No book]
[4]In God I will praise my words; all the day have I hoped in God; I will not fear what flesh shall do to me. [No book]
[5]All the day long they have abominated my words; all their devices are against me for evil. [No book]
[6]They will dwell near and hide themselves; they will watch my steps, accordingly as I have waited patiently in my soul. [No book]
[7]Thou wilt on no account save them; thou wilt bring down the people in wrath. [No book]
[8]O God, I have declared my life to thee; thou has set my tears before thee, even according to thy promise. [No book]
[9]Mine enemies shall be turned back, in the day wherein I shall call upon thee; behold, I know that thou art my God. [No book]
[10]In God, will I praise his word; in the Lord will I praise his saying. [No book]
[11]I have hoped in God; I will not be afraid of what man shall do to me. [No book]
[12]The vows of thy praise, O God, which I will pay, are upon me. [No book]
[13]For thou hast delivered my soul from death, and my feet from sliding, that I should be well-pleasing before God in the land of the living. [No book]
