571 Be gracious to me, O God , be gracious to me, For my soul takes refuge in You; And in the shadow of Your wings I will take refuge Until destruction passes by. 2 I will cry to God Most High , To God who accomplishes all things for me. 3 He will send from heaven and save me; He reproaches him who tramples upon me. Selah . God will send forth His lovingkindness and His truth . 4 My soul is among lions ; I must lie among those who breathe forth fire , Even the sons of men , whose teeth are spears and arrows And their tongue a sharp sword . 5 Be exalted above the heavens , O God ; Let Your glory be above all the earth . 6 They have prepared a net for my steps ; My soul is bowed down ; They dug a pit before me; They themselves have fallen into the midst of it. Selah .
7 My heart is steadfast , O God , my heart is steadfast ; I will sing , yes, I will sing praises ! 8 Awake , my glory ! Awake , harp and lyre ! I will awaken the dawn . 9 I will give thanks to You, O Lord , among the peoples ; I will sing praises to You among the nations . 10 For Your lovingkindness is great to the heavens And Your truth to the clouds . 11 Be exalted above the heavens , O God ; Let Your glory be above all the earth .
