57
1 (57-1) For the Leader; Al-tashheth. A Psalm of David; Michtam; when he fled from Saul, in the cave. (57-2) Be gracious unto me, O God, be gracious unto me, for in Thee hath my soul taken refuge; yea, in the shadow of Thy wings will I take refuge, until calamities be overpast. 2 (57-3) I will cry unto God Most high; unto God that accomplisheth it for me. 3 (57-4) He will send from heaven, and save me, when he that would swallow me up taunteth; Selah; God shall send forth His mercy and His truth. 4 (57-5) My soul is among lions, I do lie down among them that are aflame; even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword. 5 (57-6) Be Thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; Thy glory be above all the earth. 6 (57-7) They have prepared a net for my steps, my soul is bowed down; they have digged a pit before me, they are fallen into the midst thereof themselves. Selah 7 (57-8) My heart is stedfast, O God, my heart is stedfast; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises. 8 (57-9) Awake, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp; I will awake the dawn. 9 (57-10) I will give thanks unto Thee, O Lord, among the peoples; I will sing praises unto Thee among the nations. 10 (57-11) For Thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and Thy truth unto the skies. 11 (57-12) Be Thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; Thy glory be above all the earth.
