Psalm 57:4-6
1599 Geneva Bible
4 My soul is among lions; I lie among the children of men, that are set on fire; whose teeth are [a]spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
5 [b]Exalt thyself, O God, above the heaven, and let thy glory be upon all the earth.
6 They have laid a net for my steps; [c]my soul is pressed down, they have dug a pit before me, and are fallen into the midst of it. Selah.
