“A psalm of David, reading the time he fled from Saul and went into a cave.”
“Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy! I look to You for protection. I will hide beneath the shadow of Your wings until the danger passes by. I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill His purpose for me. He will send help from heaven to rescue me, disgracing those who hold me. My God will send forth His unfailing love and faithfulness. ” (vv. 1-3, NLT)
“Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens! May Your glory shine over all the earth.” (v. 5, NLT)
“My heart is confident in you, O God: my heart is confident. No wonder I can sing Your praises! Wake up, my heart! Wake up, O lyre and harp! I will wake the dawn with my song. I will thank you, Lord among all the people. I will sing Your praises among the nations. For Your unfailing love is as high as the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches into the clouds.
Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens. May Your glory shine over all the earth.” (vv. 7-11, NLT)
