Psalms 57:3-9 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

3. He reaches down from heaven and saves me,challenging the one who tramples me. SelahGod sends His faithful love and truth.

4. I am surrounded by lions;I lie down with those who devour men.Their teeth are spears and arrows;their tongues are sharp swords.

5. God, be exalted above the heavens;let Your glory be over the whole earth.

6. They prepared a net for my steps;I was despondent.They dug a pit ahead of me,but they fell into it! Selah

7. My heart is confident, God, my heart is confident.I will sing; I will sing praises.

8. Wake up, my soul! Wake up, harp and lyre!I will wake up the dawn.

9. I will praise You, Lord, among the peoples;I will sing praises to You among the nations.
