Psalms 57
1 To the chief music-maker; put to Al-tashheth. Michtam. Of David. When he went in flight from Saul, in the hole of the rock. Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy on me; for the hope of my soul is in you: I will keep myself safely under the shade of your wings, till these troubles are past.
To the choirmaster al-tashcheth of David a miktam when fled he from before Saul in the cave. Show favor to me O God - show favor to me for in you it takes refuge self my and in [the] shadow of wings your I take refuge until it will pass by destruction.
2 I will send up my cry to the Most High God; to God who does all things for me.
I call out to God Most High to God [who] avenges on me.
3 He will send from heaven, and take me from the power of him whose desire is for my destruction. God will send out his mercy and his good faith.
He will send from heaven - and he will save me he will reproach [one who] crushes me (Selah) he will send God covenant loyalty his and faithfulness his.
4 My soul is among lions; I am stretched out among those who are on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and whose tongue is a sharp sword.
Self my - in among lions I lie with [those that] devour [the] children of humankind teeth their [are] a spear and arrows and tongue their [is] a sword sharp.
5 O God, be lifted up higher than the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth.
Be exalted! above the heavens O God [be] over all the earth glory your.
6 They have made ready a net for my steps; my soul is bent down; they have made a great hole before me, and have gone down into it themselves. (Selah)
A net - they prepared for feet my it bent down self my they dug before me a pit they have fallen in [the] midst of it (Selah)
7 My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed; I will make songs, and give praise.
[is] steadfast Heart my O God [is] steadfast heart my I will sing and I will sing praises.
8 You are my glory; let the instruments of music be awake; I myself will be awake with the dawn.
Awake! O honor my awake! O lyre and harp I will waken [the] dawn.
9 I will give you praise, O Lord, among the peoples; I will make songs to you among the nations.
I will give thanks to you among the peoples - O Lord I will sing praises to you not nations.
10 For your mercy is great, stretching up to the heavens, and your righteousness goes up to the clouds.
For [is] great to [the] heavens covenant loyalty your and to [the] clouds faithfulness your.
11 Be lifted up, O God, higher than the heavens, let your glory be over all the earth.
Be exalted! above [the] heavens O God [be] over all the earth glory your.
