| 4. | He will send from the heavens and save me; he hath covered with reproach him that would swallow me up. Selah. God hath sent forth his loving-kindness and his truth. |
| 5. | My soul is in the midst of lions; I lie down among them that breathe out flames, the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword. |
| 6. | Be exalted above the heavens, O God; let thy glory be above all the earth! |
| 7. | They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul was bowed down: they have digged a pit before me; they are fallen into the midst thereof. Selah. |

| 10. | I will give thee thanks among the peoples, O Lord; of thee will I sing psalms among the nations: |
| 11. | For thy loving-kindness is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds. |
