Psalm 57:2-4
Evangelical Heritage Version

2 I call to God Most High,
to God, who completes his plans for me.[a]
3 He will send from heaven, and he will save me. Interlude
He puts to shame the one who pants as he pursues me.[b]
God will send his mercy and his faithfulness.

The Problem

4 My life is spent among lions.
I lie down among ferocious men,
whose teeth are spears and arrows,
whose tongue is a sharp sword.
