My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of death are fallen upon me.

Verse 4 is found in chapter 55 of Psalms. Psalm 55 combines personal anguish, social violence, and betrayal by a close friend. The possibility of escaping by flight contrasts with the reality of remaining within a city dominated by conflict. The betrayal is especially painful because it comes from someone who shared worship and friendship. The counsel to cast one’s burden upon the Lord turns an experience of anxiety into an invitation to trust in God’s continual care.

daß der Feind so schreit und der Gottlose drängt; denn sie wollen mir eine Tücke beweisen und sind mir heftig gram.
Mi corazón está doloroso dentro de mí, Y terrores de muerte sobre mí han caído.
Mi corazón se retuerce dentro de mí, y los terrores de la muerte han caído sobre mí.
Mon coeur tremble au dedans de moi, Et les terreurs de la mort me surprennent;
Il mio cuore è angosciato dentro di me; E spaventi mortali mi sono caduti addosso.
O meu coração está dolorido dentro de mim, e terrores da morte caíram sobre mim.
我的心在我裏面陣痛, 死亡的恐怖落在我身。
