¹ God Most High, have pity on me!
Have mercy.
    I run to you
    for safety.
In the shadow of your wings,
    I seek protection
    till danger dies down.
² I pray to you, my protector.
³ You will send help from heaven
    and save me,
    but you will bring trouble
    on my attackers.
You are faithful,
    and you can be trusted.

⁴ I live among lions,
    who gobble down people!
They have spears and arrows
    instead of teeth,
    and they have sharp swords
    instead of tongues.

⁵ May you, my God, be honored
    above the heavens;
    may your glory be seen
    everywhere on earth.

⁶ Enemies set traps for my feet
    and struck me down.
    They dug a pit in my path,
    but fell in it themselves.
⁷ I am faithful to you,
    and you can trust me.
    I will sing and play music
    for you, my God.
⁸ I feel wide awake!
I will wake up my harp
    and wake up the sun.
⁹ I will praise you, Lord,
    for everyone to hear,
    and I will sing hymns to you
    in every nation.
¹⁰ Your love reaches higher
    than the heavens;
    your loyalty extends
    beyond the clouds.

¹¹ May you, my God, be honored
    above the heavens;
    may your glory be seen
    everywhere on earth.
