Text -- Psalms 59:14-17 (NET)

59:14 They return in the evening; they growl like a dog and prowl around outside the city. 59:15 They wander around looking for something to eat; they refuse to sleep until they are full. 59:16 As for me, I will sing about your strength; I will praise your loyal love in the morning. For you are my refuge and my place of shelter when I face trouble. 59:17 You are my source of strength! I will sing praises to you! For God is my refuge, the God who loves me.
