Psalms 57
1 BE merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast.
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 cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me.
I call out to God Most High to God [who] avenges on me.
3 He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproach of him that would swallow me up. (Selah) God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.
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: and I lie even among them that are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue 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 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.
Be exalted! above the heavens O God [be] over all the earth glory your.
6 They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down: they have digged a pit before me, into the midst whereof they are fallen 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 sing and give praise.
[is] steadfast Heart my O God [is] steadfast heart my I will sing and I will sing praises.
8 Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
Awake! O honor my awake! O lyre and harp I will waken [the] dawn.
9 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing unto thee among the nations.
I will give thanks to you among the peoples - O Lord I will sing praises to you not nations.
10 For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.
For [is] great to [the] heavens covenant loyalty your and to [the] clouds faithfulness your.
11 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let thy glory be above all the earth.
Be exalted! above [the] heavens O God [be] over all the earth glory your.
