Psalms 57:3-11

³He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproach of him that would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.

⁴My soul is among lions: and I lie even among them that are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.

⁵Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.

⁶They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down: they have digged a pit before me, into the midst of which they have fallen themselves . Selah.

⁷My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.

⁸Awake, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.

⁹I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people: I will sing to thee among the nations.

¹⁰For thy mercy is great to the heavens, and thy truth to the clouds.

¹¹Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let thy glory be above all the earth.
