5. He hides me in his shelter when there is trouble.He keeps me hidden in his tent.He sets me high on a rock.
6. Now my head will be raised above my enemies who surround me.I will offer sacrifices with shouts of joy in his tent.I will sing and make music to praise the Lord.
7. Hear, O Lord, when I cry aloud.Have pity on me, and answer me.
8. ⌊When you said,⌋“Seek my face,”my heart said to you,“O Lord, I will seek your face.”
9. Do not hide your face from me.Do not angrily turn me away.You have been my help.Do not leave me!Do not abandon me, O God, my savior!
10. Even if my father and mother abandon me,the Lord will take care of me.
11. Teach me your way, O Lord.Lead me on a level pathbecause I have enemies who spy on me.
12. Do not surrender me to the will of my opponents.False witnesses have risen against me.They breathe out violence.
