57:1 For the choir director: “Do Not Destroy.” A Miktam of David. When he fled before Saul into the cave. Be gracious to me, God, be gracious to me, for I take refuge in you. I will seek refuge in the shadow of your wings until danger passes.
57:2 I call to God Most High, to God who fulfills his purpose for me.
57:3 He reaches down from heaven and saves me, challenging the one who tramples me.Selah God sends his faithful love and truth.
57:4 I am surrounded by lions; I lie down among devouring lions— people whose teeth are spears and arrows, whose tongues are sharp swords.
57:5 God, be exalted above the heavens; let your glory be over the whole earth.
57:6 They prepared a net for my steps; I was despondent. They dug a pit ahead of me, but they fell into it!Selah
57:7 My heart is confident, God, my heart is confident. I will sing; I will sing praises.
57:8 Wake up, my soul! Wake up, harp and lyre! I will wake up the dawn.
57:9 I will praise you, Lord, among the peoples; I will sing praises to you among the nations.
57:10 For your faithful love is as high as the heavens; your faithfulness reaches the clouds.
57:11 God, be exalted above the heavens; let your glory be over the whole earth.
