Psalms 57

¹ Be merciful to me, God, be merciful to me, Yes, in the shadow of your wings, I will take refuge, until disaster has passed.

² I cry out to God Most High,

³ He will send from heaven, and save me, God will send out his loving kindness and his truth.

⁴ My soul is among lions. even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows,

⁵ Be exalted, God, above the heavens!

⁶ They have prepared a net for my steps.

⁷ My heart is steadfast, God.

⁸ Wake up, my glory! Wake up, lute and harp!

⁹ I will give thanks to you, Lord, among the peoples.

¹⁰ For your great loving kindness reaches to the heavens,

¹¹ Be exalted, God, above the heavens. Let your glory be over all the earth.
