He will (A)send from heaven and save me;
He reproaches him who [a](B)tramples upon me. [b]Selah.
God will send forth His (C)lovingkindness and His [c]truth.

My soul is among (D)lions;
I must lie among those who breathe forth fire,
Even the sons of men, whose (E)teeth are spears and arrows
And their (F)tongue a sharp sword.
(G)Be exalted above the heavens, O God;
Let Your glory be above all the earth.
