Psalms 57:2-7

2I cry out to God Most High, to God who fulfills his purpose for me.

3He will send from heaven and save me; he will put to shame him who tramples on me. Selah God will send out his steadfast love and his faithfulness!

4My soul is in the midst of lions; I lie down amid fiery beasts— the children of man, whose teeth are spears and arrows, whose tongues are sharp swords.

5Be exalted, O God, above the heavens! Let your glory be over all the earth!

6They set a net for my steps; my soul was bowed down. They dug a pit in my way, but they have fallen into it themselves. Selah

7My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast! I will sing and make melody!
