Psalms 55:6-11
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 55

6I said, 'Oh, that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and be at rest. 7Behold, I would flee far away, I would spend my nights in the wilderness. Selah 8I would hurry to my place of refuge From the stormy wind and heavy gale.' 9Confuse them, Lord, divide their tongues, For I have seen violence and strife in the city. 10Day and night they go around her upon her walls, And evil and harm are in her midst. 11Destruction is in her midst; Oppression and deceit do not depart from her streets.
King James Version

Chapter 55

6And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest. 7Lo, then would I wander far off, and remain in the wilderness. Selah. 8I would hasten my escape from the windy storm and tempest.
9Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues: for I have seen violence and strife in the city. 10Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof: mischief also and sorrow are in the midst of it. 11Wickedness is in the midst thereof: deceit and guile depart not from her streets.
Christian Standard Bible

Chapter 55

6I said, "If only I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and find rest.
7How far away I would flee; I would stay in the wilderness. Selah
8I would hurry to my shelter from the raging wind and the storm." 9Lord, confuse and confound their speech, for I see violence and strife in the city; 10day and night they make the rounds on its walls. Crime and trouble are within it;
11destruction is inside it; oppression and deceit never leave its marketplace.
New Living Translation

Chapter 55

6Oh, that I had wings like a dove; then I would fly away and rest!
7I would fly far away to the quiet of the wilderness. Interlude 8How quickly I would escape — far from this wild storm of hatred.
9Confuse them, Lord, and frustrate their plans, for I see violence and conflict in the city. 10Its walls are patrolled day and night against invaders, but the real danger is wickedness within the city. 11Everything is falling apart; threats and cheating are rampant in the streets.
English Standard Version

Chapter 55

6And I say, “Oh, that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and be at rest; 7yes, I would wander far away; I would lodge in the wilderness; Selah 8I would hurry to find a shelter from the raging wind and tempest.” 9Destroy, O Lord, divide their tongues; for I see violence and strife in the city. 10Day and night they go around it on its walls, and iniquity and trouble are within it; 11ruin is in its midst; oppression and fraud do not depart from its marketplace.
New International Version

Chapter 55

6I said, 'Oh, that I had the wings of a dove! I would fly away and be at rest. 7I would flee far away and stay in the desert;
8I would hurry to my place of shelter, far from the tempest and storm.' 9Lord, confuse the wicked, confound their words, for I see violence and strife in the city. 10Day and night they prowl about on its walls; malice and abuse are within it.
11Destructive forces are at work in the city; threats and lies never leave its streets.
New King James Version

Chapter 55

6So I said, “Oh, that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and be at rest.
7Indeed, I would wander far off, And remain in the wilderness. Selah
8I would hasten my escape From the windy storm and tempest.” 9Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues, For I have seen violence and strife in the city. 10Day and night they go around it on its walls; Iniquity and trouble are also in the midst of it. 11Destruction is in its midst; Oppression and deceit do not depart from its streets.
