Er erlöset meine Seele von denen, die an mich wollen, und schaffet mir Ruhe; denn ihrer ist viel wider mich. Gott wird hören und sie demütigen, der allweg bleibet. Sela Sela Sela. In The evening, morning and midday I shall lament and cry So he will hear my voice He releases my soul from those who are against me and gives me peace for There are many of Them against me God will hear and will humble Them He who reigns forever.
