57:2: I cry out to God Most High, To God who accomplishes my requests for me.
57:3: He will send from heaven, and save me, He rebukes the one who is pursuing me. Selah. God will send out his loving kindness and his truth.

57:5: Be exalted, God, above the heavens! Let your glory be above all the earth!
57:6: 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 it themselves. Selah.
