Psalms 57

    –To the Chief Musician. Set to "Do Not Destroy."[1] A Michtam of David when he fled from Saul into the cave.
  1. Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me! For my soul trusts in You; And in the shadow of Your wings I will make my refuge, Until these calamities have passed by.
  2. I will cry out to God Most High, To God who performs all things for me.
  3. He shall send from heaven and save me; He reproaches the one who would swallow me up. Selah God shall send forth His mercy and His truth.
  4. My soul is among lions; I lie among the sons of men Who are set on fire, Whose teeth are spears and arrows, And their tongue a sharp sword.
  5. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; Let Your glory be above all the earth.
  6. They have prepared a net for my steps; My soul is bowed down; They have dug a pit before me; Into the midst of it they themselves have fallen. Selah
  7. My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast; I will sing and give praise.
  8. Awake, my glory! Awake, lute and harp! I will awaken the dawn.
  9. I will praise You, O Lord, among the peoples; I will sing to You among the nations.
  10. For Your mercy reaches unto the heavens, And Your truth unto the clouds.
  11. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; Let Your glory be above all the earth.
  1. Hebrew 'Al Tashcheth'
