Psalm 57:4-6
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
4 I lie in the midst of lions
that greedily devour[a] the sons of men;
their teeth are spears and arrows,
their tongues sharp swords.
5 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!
Let thy glory be over all the earth!
6 They set a net for my steps;
my soul was bowed down.
They dug a pit in my way,
but they have fallen into it themselves.Selah
