Psalms 57

1 For the one directing. [To] “Do not Destroy.” Of David. A Miktam in his fleeing from the face of Saul in the cave. Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy on me! For in You my soul takes refuge, and in the shadow of Your wings I will make my refuge, until the calamities have passed by. VP →

2 I will call out to El-Elyon, to God, who fulfills for me. VP →

3 He sends forth from the heavens, and saves me; He rebukes the one panting after me. Selah God sends forth His loving devotion and His faithfulness. VP →

4 My soul [is] in the midst of lions; I lie down [among] flames—the sons of men, their teeth [are] spears and arrows, and their tongue [is] a sharp sword. VP →

5 Be exalted above the heavens, O God, Your glory above all the earth! VP →

6 They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bent down; they have dug before me a pit—may they fall into its midst! Selah VP →

7 my heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast; I will sing and make music. VP →

8 Awake, my glory! Awake, O harp and lyre—I will awaken the dawn! VP →

9 I will confess You among the peoples, O Lord; I will make music to You among the nations. VP →

10 For Your loving devotion reaches to the heavens, and Your faithfulness to the clouds. VP →

11 [Be] lifted high above the heavens, O God, [and] above all the earth Your glory! VP →
