﻿Psalm.
Chapter 57.
Be gracious to me, God, be gracious to me, for my soul takes refuge in you. In the shadow of your wings I will take refuge until destruction passes. 
I cry to God Most High, to God who brings things to completion for me. 
He will send from heaven and save me; he will put my trampler to shame. Selah. God will send his steadfast love and truth. 
My soul is among lions; I lie among fiery men whose teeth are spears and arrows, whose tongue is a sharp sword. 
Be exalted above the heavens, God; let your glory be over all the earth. 
They prepared a net for my steps; my soul was bowed down. They dug a pit before me, but fell into it themselves. Selah. 
My heart is steadfast, God, my heart is steadfast; I will sing and make music. 
Awake, my glory! Awake, harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn. 
I will thank you among the peoples, Lord; I will sing praise to you among the nations. 
For your steadfast love is great to the heavens, and your truth to the clouds. 
Be exalted above the heavens, God; let your glory be over all the earth.
