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
For the chief musician; set to Al Tashheth. A psalm of David. A michtam; when he fled from Saul, in the cave. Be merciful to me, God, be merciful to me, for I take refuge in you until these troubles are over. I stay under your wings for protection until this destruction is over.
2 clamabo ad Deum altissimum Deum qui benefecit mihi
I will cry to God Most High, to God, who does all things 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 help from heaven and save me, he is angry with those who crush me. (Selah) God will send me his loving kindness and his faithfulness.
4 et eripuit animam meam de medio catulorum leonum dormivi conturbatus filii hominum dentes eorum arma et sagittae et lingua eorum gladius acutus
My life is among lions; I am among those who are ready to devour me. I am among people whose teeth are spears and arrows, and whose tongues are sharp swords.
5 exaltare super caelos Deus et in omnem terram gloria tua
Be exalted, God, above the heavens; let your 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 spread out a net for my feet; I was distressed. They dug a pit in front of me. They themselves have fallen into the middle of it! (Selah)
7 paratum cor meum Deus paratum cor meum cantabo et psalmum dicam
My heart is fixed, God, my heart is fixed; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises.
8 exsurge gloria mea exsurge psalterium et cithara exsurgam diluculo
Wake up, my honored heart; wake up, lute and harp; I will wake up the dawn.
9 confitebor tibi in populis Domine psalmum dicam tibi in gentibus
I will give thanks to you, Lord, among the peoples; I will sing praises to you among the nations.
10 quoniam magnificata est usque ad caelos misericordia tua et usque ad nubes veritas tua
For great is your unfailing love, reaching to the heavens; and your faithfulness to the clouds.
11 exaltare super caelos Deus et super omnem terram gloria tua
Be exalted, God, above the heavens; may your glory be exalted over all the earth.
