For the choir director: A psalm[80] of David, regarding the time he fled from Saul and went into the cave. To be sung to the tune “Do Not Destroy!” 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,[81] to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. |

He will send help from heaven to rescue me, disgracing those who hound me. Interlude My God will send forth his unfailing love and faithfulness. |

I am surrounded by fierce lions who greedily devour human prey— whose teeth pierce like spears and arrows, and whose tongues cut like swords. |

My enemies have set a trap for me. I am weary from distress. They have dug a deep pit in my path, but they themselves have fallen into it. Interlude |

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. |
