Psalm 57:4-6

EasyEnglish Bible

⁴ My enemies are all round me,
    like hungry lions!
I must lie down among wild animals,
    that want to eat me!
They are men who use spears and arrows
    to bite like teeth.
They use their tongues to hurt people,
    like sharp swords.
⁵ God, show how great you are,
    high above the sky!
Let everybody on the earth see your glory!
⁶ My enemies have prepared a trap to catch me.
    That makes me very upset.
They have dug a deep hole on the path where I walk.
    But they have fallen into it themselves!
Selah.
