Psalms 55:6
King James VersionSource notes
“And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! would I fly away, and be at rest.”
Context
3Because 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.
4My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of death are fallen upon me.
5Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me.
6And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! would I fly away, and be at rest.
7Lo, would I wander far off, remain in the wilderness. Selah.
8I would hasten my escape from the windy storm tempest.
9Destroy, O Lord, divide their tongues: for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
