1 Show me favour, O God, Show me favour, For, in thee, hath my soul sought refuge,—And, in the shadow of thy wings, will I seek refuge, Until the storm of ruin pass by.

2 I will cry unto God Most High, Unto GOD, who accomplisheth on my behalf:

3 He will send out of heaven, that he may save me, He who is panting for me, hath reproached. [Selah.] God will send out his lovingkindness and his faithfulness.

4 My soul, is in the midst of lions, I lie down amidst flames, As for the sons of men, Their teeth, are spear and arrows, And, their tongue, is a sharp sword.

5 Be exalted Above the Heavens, O God, Above all the earth, thy glory!

6 A net, did they fix for my steps, My soul was bowed down,—They digged before me a pit, They fell into the midst thereof! [Selah.]

7 Fixed is my heart, O God, Fixed is my heart, I will sing, and touch the strings.

8 Awake, mine honour, Awake, harp and lyre, I will awaken the dawn;

9 I will thank thee, among the peoples, O My Lord, I will praise thee in song, among the races of men.

10 For, great, unto the heavens, is thy lovingkindness, And, unto the skies, thy faithfulness.

11 Be exalted Above the heavens, O God, Above all the earth, thy glory!
