(1) Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge , until [these] calamities be overpast (2) I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth [all things] for me. (3) He 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 (4) My 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. (5) Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; [let] thy glory [be] above all the earth. (6) They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down: they have digged a pit before me, into the midst whereof they are fallen [themselves.] Selah. (7) My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise (8) Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp : I [myself] will awake early. (9) I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing unto thee among the nations. (10) For thy mercy [is] great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds. (11) Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: [let] thy glory [be] above all the earth.
