# Chapter 57
|
|
1. Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me,
|
|
for in you my soul takes refuge;
|
|
in the shadow of your wings I will take refuge,
|
|
till the storms of destruction pass by.
|
|
|
|
2. I cry out to God Most High,
|
|
to God who fulfills his purpose for me.
|
|
|
|
3. He will send from heaven and save me;
|
|
he will put to shame him who tramples on me. Selah
|
|
God will send out his steadfast love and his faithfulness!
|
|
|
|
4. My soul is in the midst of lions;
|
|
I lie down amid fiery beasts--
|
|
the children of man, whose teeth are spears and arrows,
|
|
whose tongues are sharp swords.
|
|
|
|
5. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!
|
|
Let your glory be over all the earth!
|
|
|
|
6. They set a net for my steps;
|
|
my soul was bowed down.
|
|
They dug a pit in my way,
|
|
|
|
but they have fallen into it themselves. Selah
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. My heart is steadfast, O God,
|
|
my heart is steadfast!
|
|
I will sing and make melody!
|
|
|
|
8. Awake, my glory!
|
|
Awake, O harp and lyre!
|
|
I will awake the dawn!
|
|
|
|
9. I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the peoples;
|
|
I will sing praises to you among the nations.
|
|
|
|
10. For your steadfast love is great to the heavens,
|
|
your faithfulness to the clouds.
|
|
|
|
11. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!
|
|
Let your glory be over all the earth!
