Psalms 55:3 - Compare All Versions

because of what my enemy is saying, because of the threats of the wicked; for they bring down suffering on me and assail me in their anger.

because of the noise of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked. For they drop trouble upon me, and in anger they bear a grudge against me.

My enemies shout at me, making loud and wicked threats. They bring trouble on me and angrily hunt me down.

because of the enemy’s words,  because of the pressure  of the wicked. For they bring down disaster on me and harass me in anger.

Because of the voice of the enemy, Because of the oppression of the wicked: For they cast iniquity upon me, And in wrath they hate me.

Because of the voice of the enemy, Because of the oppression of the wicked; For they bring down trouble upon me, And in wrath they hate me.

Open your ears, God, to my prayer; don’t pretend you don’t hear me knocking. Come close and whisper your answer. I really need you. I shudder at the mean voice, quail before the evil eye, As they pile on the guilt, stockpile angry slander.

Because of the voice of the enemy, Because of the pressure of the wicked; For they bring down trouble upon me And in anger they hold a grudge against me.

Because of the voice of the enemy, Because of the pressure of the wicked; For they bring down trouble on me, And in anger they persecute me.

because of what the enemy says, and because of how the wicked pressure me, for they hurl trouble down upon me and angrily attack me.
