057:006 They have prepared a net for my steps. My soul is bowed down.
They dig a pit before me. They fall into the midst of

057:007 My heart is steadfast, God, my heart is steadfast.
I will sing, yes, I will sing praises.
057:008 Wake up, my glory! Wake up, psaltery and harp!
I will wake up the dawn.
057:009 I will give thanks to you, Lord, among the peoples.
I will sing praises to you among the nations.
057:010 For your great loving kindness reaches to the heavens,
and your truth to the skies.
057:011 Be exalted, God, above the heavens. Let your glory be over
all the earth.
058:001 <<For the Chief Musician. To the tune of "Do Not Destroy."
A poem by David.>> Do you indeed speak righteousness, silent ones?
Do you judge blamelessly, you sons of men?
058:002 No, in your heart you plot injustice. You measure out the violence

058:004 Their poison is like the poison of a snake; like a deaf cobra
that stops its ear,

058:008 Let them be like a snail which melts and passes away,
like the stillborn child, who has not seen the sun.
058:009 Before your pots can feel the heat of the thorns, he will sweep
away the green and the burning alike.
058:010 The righteous shall rejoice when he sees the vengeance.

058:011 so that men shall say, "Most certainly there is a reward

Set me on high from those who rise up against me.
059:002 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity. Save me from
the bloodthirsty men.
