⁴ I lie down among lions
   that greedily devour^* human prey;
their teeth are spears and arrows,
   their tongues sharp swords.

⁵ Be exalted, O God, above the heavens.
   Let your glory be over all the earth.

⁶ They set a net for my steps;
   my soul was bowed down.
They dug a pit in my path,
   but they have fallen into it themselves.
          Selah
⁷ My heart is steadfast, O God,
   my heart is steadfast.
I will sing and make melody.
⁸   Awake, my soul!
Awake, O harp and lyre!
   I will awake the dawn.
⁹ I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the peoples;
   I will sing praises to you among the nations.
¹⁰ For your steadfast love is as high as the heavens;
   your faithfulness extends to the clouds.

¹¹ Be exalted, O God, above the heavens.
   Let your glory be over all the earth.
