Psalmorum 57
1 in finem ne disperdas David in tituli inscriptione cum fugeret a facie Saul in spelunca miserere mei Deus miserere mei quoniam in te confidit anima mea et in umbra alarum tuarum sperabo donec transeat iniquitas
To the chief Musician. 'Destroy not.' Of David. Michtam; when he fled from Saul in the cave. Be gracious unto me, O God, be gracious unto me; for my soul taketh refuge in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings do I take refuge, until the calamities be overpast.
2 clamabo ad Deum altissimum Deum qui benefecit mihi
I will call unto God, the Most High; unto God that performeth [all] for me.
3 misit de caelo et liberavit me dedit in obprobrium conculcantes me diapsalma misit Deus misericordiam suam et veritatem suam
He will send from the heavens and save me; he hath covered with reproach him that would swallow me up. (Selah) God hath sent forth his loving-kindness and his truth.
4 et eripuit animam meam de medio catulorum leonum dormivi conturbatus filii hominum dentes eorum arma et sagittae et lingua eorum gladius acutus
My soul is in the midst of lions; I lie down [among] them that breathe out flames, the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
5 exaltare super caelos Deus et in omnem terram gloria tua
Be exalted above the heavens, O God; let thy glory be above all the earth!
6 laqueum paraverunt pedibus meis et incurvaverunt animam meam foderunt ante faciem meam foveam et inciderunt in eam diapsalma
They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul was bowed down: they have digged a pit before me; they are fallen into the midst thereof. (Selah)
7 paratum cor meum Deus paratum cor meum cantabo et psalmum dicam
My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing, yea, I will sing psalms.
8 exsurge gloria mea exsurge psalterium et cithara exsurgam diluculo
Awake, my glory; awake, lute and harp: I will wake the dawn.
9 confitebor tibi in populis Domine psalmum dicam tibi in gentibus
I will give thee thanks among the peoples, O Lord; of thee will I sing psalms among the nations:
10 quoniam magnificata est usque ad caelos misericordia tua et usque ad nubes veritas tua
For thy loving-kindness is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.
11 exaltare super caelos Deus et super omnem terram gloria tua
Be exalted above the heavens, O God; let thy glory be above all the earth!
