Psalms 57

Psalm 57^a

For the director of music. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” Of David. A miktam.b When he had fled from Saul into the cave.

Have mercy on me, my God, have mercy on me,
for in you I take refuge.
I will take refuge in the shadow of your wings
until the disaster has passed.

Let Your Glory Be over All the Earth

To the choirmaster: according to Do Not Destroy. A Miktama of David, when he fled from Saul, in the cave.

Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me,
for in you my soul takes refuge;
in the shadow of your wings I will take refuge,
till the storms of destruction pass by.

I cry out to God Most High,
to God, who vindicates me.

I cry out to God Most High,
to God who fulfills his purpose for me.

He sends from heaven and saves me,
rebuking those who hotly pursue me — c
God sends forth his love and his faithfulness.

He will send from heaven and save me;
he will put to shame him who tramples on me. Selah
God will send out his steadfast love and his faithfulness!

I am in the midst of lions;
I am forced to dwell among ravenous beasts —
men whose teeth are spears and arrows,
whose tongues are sharp swords.

My soul is in the midst of lions;
I lie down amid fiery beasts —
the children of man, whose teeth are spears and arrows,
whose tongues are sharp swords.

Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
let your glory be over all the earth.

Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!
Let your glory be over all the earth!

They spread a net for my feet —
I was bowed down in distress.
They dug a pit in my path —
but they have fallen into it themselves.

They set a net for my steps;
my soul was bowed down.
They dug a pit in my way,
but they have fallen into it themselves. Selah

My heart, O God, is steadfast,
my heart is steadfast;
I will sing and make music.

My heart is steadfast, O God,
my heart is steadfast!
I will sing and make melody!

Awake, my soul!
Awake, harp and lyre!
I will awaken the dawn.

Awake, my glory!b
Awake, O harp and lyre!
I will awake the dawn!

I will praise you, Lord, among the nations;
I will sing of you among the peoples.

I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the peoples;
I will sing praises to you among the nations.

For great is your love, reaching to the heavens;
your faithfulness reaches to the skies.

For your steadfast love is great to the heavens,
your faithfulness to the clouds.

Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
let your glory be over all the earth.

Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!
Let your glory be over all the earth!
