57:1  To the Overcomer upon, Do not destroy, Michtam of David, when he fled from the presence of Saul in the cave. 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.
