1 Ps. 56:1;See Ps. 4:1Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me,
for in you my soul Ps. 91:4takes refuge;
in See Ps. 17:8the shadow of your wings I will take refuge,

to God who Ps. 138:8fulfills his purpose for me.

he will put to shame See Ps. 56:1him who tramples on me. Selah
Ps. 43:3God will send out See Ps. 36:5;40:11his steadfast love and his faithfulness!
4 My soul is in the midst of Ps. 58:6lions;
I lie down amid fiery beasts—
the children of man, whose Prov. 30:14teeth are spears and arrows,
whose Ps. 55:21;59:7;64:3;Prov. 12:18;[Ps. 52:2;Jer. 9:8]tongues are sharp swords.
5 Ps. 108:5;[Ps. 113:4]Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!
Let your glory be over all the earth!
6 They set See Job 18:8a net for my steps;
my soul was Ps. 145:14;146:8bowed down.
They See Ps. 7:15dug a pit in my way,
but they have fallen into it themselves. Selah

Awake, 1 Chr. 15:16O harp and lyre!
