I will cry to God Most High,
To God who (A)accomplishes all things for me.
He will (B)send from heaven and save me;
He rebukes the one who [a](C)tramples upon me. Selah
God will send His [b](D)favor and His truth.

My soul is among (E)lions;
I must lie among those who devour,
Among sons of mankind whose (F)teeth are spears and arrows,
And their (G)tongue is a sharp sword.
(H)Be exalted above the heavens, God;
May Your glory be above all the earth.
They have prepared a (I)net for my steps;
My soul is (J)bowed down;
They (K)dug a pit before me;
They themselves have (L)fallen into the midst of it. Selah

(M)My (N)heart is steadfast, God, my heart is steadfast;
I will sing, yes, I will sing praises!
Awake, (O)my glory!
Awake, (P)harp and lyre!
I will awaken the dawn.
(Q)I will praise You, Lord, among the peoples;
I will sing praises to You among the [c]nations.
10 For Your (R)goodness is great to the heavens
And Your [d]truth to the clouds.
11 (S)Be exalted above the heavens, God;
May Your glory be above all the earth.
