Psalms 57:8
6 They spread a net for my feet; my soul was despondent. They dug a pit before me, but they themselves have fallen into it! Selah
7 My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast. I will sing and make music.
Awake, my glory! Awake, O harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn.
9 I will praise You, O Lord, among the nations; I will sing Your praises among the peoples.
10 For Your loving devotion reaches to the heavens, and Your faithfulness to the clouds.
