-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.--I will cry unto God most high- unto God that performeth all things for me.--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.--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.--Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens- let thy glory be above all the earth.--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.--My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed- I will sing and give praise.--Awake up, my glory- awake, psaltery and harp- I myself will awake early.--I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people- I will sing unto thee among the nations.--For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.--Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens- let thy glory be above all the earth.---Psalm 57
