Psalms

The Message

1 God! Look! Enemies past counting! Enemies sprouting like mushrooms,

2 "Hah! No help for him from God!"

3 You ground my feet, you lift my head high;

4 His answers thunder from the holy mountain.

5 Then I'm up again—rested, tall and steady,

6 Coming at me from all sides.

7 Slap their faces, First this cheek, then the other, Your fist hard in their teeth!

8 Your blessing clothes your people!
