Psalms 57
1 Be merciful unto me, O Elohim, 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.
| לַמְנַצֵּחַ אַל־תַּשְׁחֵת לְדָוִד מִכְתָּם בְּבָרְחוֹ מִפְּנֵי־שָׁאוּל בַּמְּעָרֽ͏ָה׃ חָנֵּנִי אֱלֹהִים ׀ חָנֵּנִי כִּי בְךָ חָסָיָה נַפְשִׁי וּבְצֵֽל־כְּנָפֶיךָ אֶחְסֶה עַד יַעֲבֹר הַוּֽוֹת׃ |
2 I will cry unto Elohim most high; unto El that performeth all things for me.
| אֶקְרָא לֵֽאלֹהִים עֶלְיוֹן לָאֵל גֹּמֵר עָלָֽי׃ |
3 He shall send from heaven, and save from the reproach of him that would swallow me up. (Selah) Elohim shall send forth his mercy and his truth.
| יִשְׁלַח מִשָּׁמַיִם ׀ וְֽיוֹשִׁיעֵנִי חֵרֵף שֹׁאֲפִי סֶלָה יִשְׁלַח אֱלֹהִים חַסְדּוֹ וַאֲמִתּֽוֹ׃ |
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.
| נַפְשִׁי ׀ בְּתוֹךְ לְבָאִם אֶשְׁכְּבָה לֹהֲטִים בְּֽנֵי־אָדָם שִׁנֵּיהֶם חֲנִית וְחִצִּים וּלְשׁוֹנָם חֶרֶב חַדָּֽה׃ |
5 Be thou exalted, O Elohim, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.
| רוּמָה עַל־הַשָּׁמַיִם אֱלֹהִים עַל כָּל־הָאָרֶץ כְּבוֹדֶֽךָ׃ |
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)
| רֶשֶׁת ׀ הֵכִינוּ לִפְעָמַי כָּפַף נַפְשִׁי כָּרוּ לְפָנַי שִׁיחָה נָפְלוּ בְתוֹכָהּ סֶֽלָה׃ |
7 My heart is fixed, O Elohim, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.
| נָכוֹן לִבִּי אֱלֹהִים נָכוֹן לִבִּי אָשִׁירָה וַאֲזַמֵּֽרָה׃ |
8 Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
| עוּרָה כְבוֹדִי עוּרָֽה הַנֵּבֶל וְכִנּוֹר אָעִירָה שָּֽׁחַר׃ |
9 I will praise thee, O YHWH, among the people: I will sing unto thee among the nations.
| אוֹדְךָ בָעַמִּים ׀ אֲדֹנָי אֲזַמֶּרְךָ בַּל־אֻמִּֽים׃ |
10 For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.
| כִּֽי־גָדֹל עַד־שָׁמַיִם חַסְדֶּךָ וְֽעַד־שְׁחָקִים אֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃ |
11 Be thou exalted, O Elohim, above the heavens: let thy glory be above all the earth.
| רוּמָה עַל־שָׁמַיִם אֱלֹהִים עַל כָּל־הָאָרֶץ כְּבוֹדֶֽךָ׃ |
