Dual Panel1For the leader: set to “Destroy not”: for David: a miktam (when he was a fugitive from Saul in the cave) GOD, be gracious to me; be gracious, for I have made you my refuge. I shall seek refuge in the shadow of your wings until the storms are past.
2I shall call to God Most High, to the God who will fulfil his purpose for me.
3He will send from heaven and save me, and my persecutors he will put to scorn. [Selah] May God send his love, unfailing and sure.
4I lie prostrate among lions, man-eaters whose teeth are spears and arrows, whose tongues are sharp swords.
5God, be exalted above the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth.
6Some have prepared a net to catch me as I walk, but they themselves were brought low; they have dug a pit in my path but have themselves fallen into it. [Selah]
7My heart is steadfast, God, my heart is steadfast. I shall sing and raise a psalm.
8Awake, my soul, awake, harp and lyre; I shall awake at dawn.
9I shall praise you among the peoples, Lord, among the nations I shall raise a psalm to you,
10for your unfailing love is as high as the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
11God, be exalted above the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth.
