5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.
6 They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down; they have digged a pit before me, into the midst whereof they are fallen themselves. Selah.
7 My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise.
8 Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp; I myself will awake early.
9 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people; I will sing unto thee among the nations.
10 For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.
11 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.
Psalms 58 Intro: Wicked judges reproved -- Judgment of the wicked. (To the chief Musician, Al-taschith, Michtam of David.)
1 Do ye indeed speak righteousness, O congregation? do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?
2 Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh the violence of your hands in the earth.
3 The wicked are estranged from the womb; they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.
