Psalms 57
1 Unto the end, destroy not, for David, for an inscription of a title, when he fled from Saul into the cave. Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy on me: for my soul trusteth in thee. And in the shadow of thy wings will I hope, until iniquity pass away.
Psalmus, in finem, ne corrumpas, David in tituli inscriptionem, cum fugeret a facie Saul in speluncam. Miserere mei Deus, miserere mei: quoniam in te confidit anima mea. Et in umbra alarum tuarum sperabo, donec transeat iniquitas.
2 I will cry to God the most High; to God who hath done good to me.
Clamabo ad Deum altissimum: Deum qui benefecit mihi.
3 He hath sent from heaven and delivered me: he hath made them a reproach that trod upon me. God hath sent his mercy and his truth,
Misit de caelo, et liberavit me: dedit in opprobrium conculcantes me. Misit Deus misericordiam suam, et veritatem suam,
4 And he hath delivered my soul from the midst of the young lions. I slept troubled. The sons of men, whose teeth are weapons and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
et eripuit animam meam de medio catulorum leonum: dormivi conturbatus. Filii hominum dentes eorum arma et sagittae: et lingua eorum gladius acutus.
5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, and thy glory above all the earth.
Exaltare super caelos Deus: et in omnem terram gloria tua.
6 They prepared a snare for my feet; and they bowed down my soul. They dug a pit before my face, and they are fallen into it.
Laqueum paraverunt pedibus meis: et incurvaverunt animam meam. Foderunt ante faciem meam foveam: et inciderunt in eam.
7 My heart is ready, O God, my heart is ready: I will Sing, and rehearse a psalm.
Paratum cor meum Deus, paratum cor meum: cantabo, et psalmum dicam.
8 Arise, O my glory, arise psaltery and harp: I will arise early.
Exurge gloria mea, exurge psalterium et cithara: exurgam diluculo.
9 I will give praise to thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing a psalm to thee among the nations.
Confitebor tibi in populis Domine: et psalmum dicam tibi in gentibus:
10 For thy mercy is magnified even to the heavens: and thy truth unto the clouds.
Quoniam magnificata est usque ad caelos misericordia tua, et usque ad nubes veritas tua.
11 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth.
Exaltare super caelos Deus: et super omnem terram gloria tua.
