Psalm 57
To the chief Musician, Al-taschith, Michtam of David, when he fled from Saul in the cave.
| 1 | Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast. |
| 2 | I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me. |
| 3 | He shall send from heaven, and save from the reproach of him that would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth. |
| 4 | My soul is among lions: and I lie even among them that are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword. |
| 5 | Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth. |
| 6 | They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down: they have digged a pit before me, into the midst whereof they are fallen themselves. Selah. |
| 7 | My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise. |
| 8 | Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early. |
| 9 | I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing unto thee among the nations. |
| 10 | For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds. |
| 11 | Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let thy glory be above all the earth. |
