Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me; For my soul taketh refuge in thee: Yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I take refuge, Until these calamities be overpast.

| 2 |
I will cry unto God Most High, Unto God that performeth all things for me.
|
| 3 |
He will send from heaven, and save me, When he that would swallow me up reproacheth; Selah God will send forth his lovingkindness and his truth.
|
| 4 |
My soul is among lions; I lie 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; They are fallen into the midst thereof themselves. Selah

| 7 |
My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing, yea, I will sing praises.
|
| 8 |
Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake right early.
|
| 9 |
I will give thanks unto thee, O Lord, among the peoples: I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.
|
| 10 |
For thy lovingkindness is great unto the heavens, And thy truth unto the skies.
|
| 11 |
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; Let thy glory be above all the earth.
