3. He sends from heaven and saves me,rebuking those who hotly pursue me –God sends forth his love and his faithfulness.
4. I am in the midst of lions;I am forced to dwell among ravenous beasts –men whose teeth are spears and arrows,whose tongues are sharp swords.
5. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;let your glory be over all the earth.
6. They spread a net for my feet –I was bowed down in distress.They dug a pit in my path –but they have fallen into it themselves.
7. My heart, O God, is steadfast,my heart is steadfast;I will sing and make music.
8. Awake, my soul!Awake, harp and lyre!I will awaken the dawn.
9. I will praise you, Lord, among the nations;I will sing of you among the peoples.
