Psalms 55:16
14 We shared sweet fellowship together; we walked with the crowd into the house of God.
15 Let death seize them by surprise; let them go down to Sheol alive, for evil is with them in their homes.
But I call to God, and the LORD saves me.
17 Morning, noon, and night, I cry out in distress, and He hears my voice.
18 He redeems my soul in peace from the battle waged against me, even though many oppose me.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
