Ug karon pagabayawon ang ulo ko sa ibabaw sa akong mga kaaway nga nagalibut kanako; Ug magahalad ako diha sa iyang balong-balong, mga halad sa kalipay; Ako magaawit, oo, magaawit ako ug mga pagdayeg ngadto kang Jehova.

Explained for Children
Imagine you're in a playground, and there are some bullies around you. But you know your best friend is with you, and you feel so safe and happy that you want to sing and dance, and you feel taller than the bullies. That's what David is feeling, but he's going to sing songs to thank God instead of dancing.
Historical Background
