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
