2 I cry out to God Most High,to the God who does everything for me.
3 He sends help from heaven and saves me.He punishes those who chase me.SelahGod sends me his love and truth.
4 Enemies, like lions, are all around me;I must lie down among them.Their teeth are like spears and arrows,their tongues as sharp as swords.
5 God is supreme over the skies;his majesty covers the earth.
6 They set a trap for me.I am very worried.They dug a pit in my path,but they fell into it themselves.Selah
7 My heart is steady, God; my heart is steady.I will sing and praise you.
8 Wake up, my soul.Wake up, harp and lyre!I will wake up the dawn.
