Psalms 57
1 TO THE OVERSEER. “DO NOT DESTROY.” A MIKTAM OF DAVID, IN HIS FLEEING FROM THE FACE OF SAUL INTO A CAVE. Favor me, O God, favor me, For my soul is trusting in You, And I trust in the shadow of Your wings, Until the calamities pass over.
| לַמְנַצֵּחַ אַל־תַּשְׁחֵת לְדָוִד מִכְתָּם בְּבׇרְחוֹ מִפְּנֵי־שָׁאוּל בַּמְּעָרָֽה׃ חׇנֵּנִי אֱלֹהִים ׀ חׇנֵּנִי כִּי בְךָ חָסָיָה נַפְשִׁי וּבְצֵֽל־כְּנָפֶיךָ אֶחְסֶה עַד יַעֲבֹר הַוּֽוֹת׃ |
2 I call to God Most High, To God [who] is perfecting for me.
| אֶקְרָא לֵֽאלֹהִים עֶלְיוֹן לָאֵל גֹּמֵר עָלָֽי׃ |
3 He sends from the heavens, and saves me, He reproached [the one] who is panting after me. (Selah) God sends forth His kindness and His truth.
| יִשְׁלַח מִשָּׁמַיִם ׀ וְֽיוֹשִׁיעֵנִי חֵרֵף שֹׁאֲפִי סֶלָה יִשְׁלַח אֱלֹהִים חַסְדּוֹ וַאֲמִתּֽוֹ׃ |
4 My soul [is] in the midst of lions, I lie down [among] flames—sons of men, Their teeth [are] a spear and arrows, And their tongue a sharp sword.
| נַפְשִׁי ׀ בְּתוֹךְ לְבָאִם אֶשְׁכְּבָה לֹהֲטִים בְּֽנֵי־אָדָם שִׁנֵּיהֶם חֲנִית וְחִצִּים וּלְשׁוֹנָם חֶרֶב חַדָּֽה׃ |
5 Be exalted above the heavens, O God, Your glory above all the earth.
| רוּמָה עַל־הַשָּׁמַיִם אֱלֹהִים עַל כׇּל־הָאָרֶץ כְּבוֹדֶֽךָ׃ |
6 They have prepared a net for my steps, My soul has bowed down, They have dug a pit before me, They have fallen into its midst. (Selah)
| רֶשֶׁת ׀ הֵכִינוּ לִפְעָמַי כָּפַף נַפְשִׁי כָּרוּ לְפָנַי שִׁיחָה נָפְלוּ בְתוֹכָהּ סֶֽלָה׃ |
7 My heart is prepared, O God, My heart is prepared, I sing and praise.
| נָכוֹן לִבִּי אֱלֹהִים נָכוֹן לִבִּי אָשִׁירָה וַאֲזַמֵּֽרָה׃ |
8 Awake, my glory, awake, stringed instrument and harp, I awake the morning dawn.
| עוּרָה כְבוֹדִי עוּרָֽה הַנֵּבֶל וְכִנּוֹר אָעִירָה שָּֽׁחַר׃ |
9 I thank You among the peoples, O Lord, I praise You among the nations.
| אוֹדְךָ בָעַמִּים ׀ אֲדֹנָי אֲזַמֶּרְךָ בַּלְאֻמִּֽים׃ |
10 For Your kindness [is] great to the heavens, And Your truth to the clouds.
| כִּֽי־גָדֹל עַד־שָׁמַיִם חַסְדֶּךָ וְֽעַד־שְׁחָקִים אֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃ |
11 Be exalted above the heavens, O God. Your glory above all the earth!
| רוּמָה עַל־שָׁמַיִם אֱלֹהִים עַל כׇּל־הָאָרֶץ כְּבוֹדֶֽךָ׃ |
