Jubilee2000 - Psalms - 57

57:1  <> Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusts in thee; and in the shadow of thy wings I will make my refuge until [these] calamities are overpast.

57:2  I will cry unto God most high, unto God that performs [all things] for me.

57:3  He shall send from the heavens and save me [from] the reproach of him that would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.

57:4  My soul [is] among lions, [and] I lie [even among] those that are set on fire, [even] the sons of men, whose teeth [are] spears and arrows and their tongue a sharp sword.

57:5  Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; [let] thy glory [be] above all the earth.

57:6  They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down; they have dug a pit before me, into the midst of which they are fallen [themselves]. Selah.

57:7  My heart is ready, O God, my heart is willing; I will sing and give praise.

57:8  Awake, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp; I [myself] will arise early.

57:9  I will praise thee, O Lord, among the peoples; I will sing unto thee among the nations.

57:10  For thy mercy [is] great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.

57:11  Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; [let] thy glory [be] above all the earth.:
