Psalm 56 is another psalm from the experiences of David. This is a good psalm for us to pray when we feel that our lives are out of control and that people are against us.
Translation notes:
4 I will praise [You,/0] God, for what [You/he] has promised.
I trust in [You,/0] God, so why should I be afraid?
What can mere mortals do to me?
Similar changes in v. 9-11

13 He told us how an angel had appeared to him in his home and had told him, ‘Send messengers to Joppa, and summon a man named Simon[, also called//0] Peter.
