5. And he has rescued my soul from the midst of the young lions. I slept troubled. The sons of men: their teeth are weapons and arrows, and their tongue is a sharp sword.
6. Be exalted above the heavens, O God, and your glory above all the earth.
7. They prepared a snare for my feet, and they bowed down my soul. They dug a pit before my face, yet they have fallen into it.
8. My heart is prepared, O God, my heart is prepared. I will sing, and I will compose a psalm.
9. Rise up, my glory. Rise up, psaltery and harp. I will arise in early morning.
10. I will confess to you, O Lord, among the peoples. I will compose a psalm to you among the nations.
11. For your mercy has been magnified, even to the heavens, and your truth, even to the clouds.
12. Be exalted above the heavens, O God, and your glory above all the earth.
