1 God Most High, have pity on me!Have mercy. I run to youfor safety.In the shadow of your wings,I seek protectiontill danger dies down.
2 I pray to you, my protector.
3 You will send help from heavenand save me,but you will bring troubleon my attackers.You are faithful,and you can be trusted.
4 I live among lions,who gobble up people!They have spears and arrowsinstead of teeth,and they have sharp swordsinstead of tongues.
