Psalms 57:8

6 ^aThey have prepared a net for my steps;
My soul is bowed down;
They have dug a pit before me;
Into the midst of it they themselves have fallen. Selah

7 ^aMy heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast;
I will sing and give praise.

8 Awake, ^amy glory!
Awake, lute and harp!
I will awaken the dawn.

9 ^aI will praise You, O Lord, among the peoples;
I will sing to You among the¹ nations.

10 ^aFor Your mercy reaches unto the heavens,
And Your truth unto the clouds.
