New International Version
5 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
let your glory be over all the earth.(A)
6 They spread a net for my feet(B)—
I was bowed down(C) in distress.
They dug a pit(D) in my path—
but they have fallen into it themselves.(E)
7 My heart, O God, is steadfast,
my heart is steadfast;(F)
I will sing and make music.
