chapter_Psalm_57
Psalm 57:1: To the Overseer. &#8212; 'Destroy not.' &#8212; A secret treasure of David, in his fleeing from the face of Saul into a cave. Favour me, O God, favour me, For in Thee is my soul trusting, And in the shadow of Thy wings I trust, Until the calamities pass over. Psalm 57:2: I call to God Most High, To God who is perfecting for me. Psalm 57:3: He sendeth from the heaven, and saveth me, He reproached &#8212; who is panting after me. Selah. God sendeth forth His kindness and His truth. Psalm 57:4: My soul is in the midst of lions, I lie down among flames &#8212; sons of men, Their teeth are a spear and arrows, And their tongue a sharp sword. Psalm 57:5: Be Thou exalted above the heavens, O God, Above all the earth Thine honour. Psalm 57:6: A net they have prepared for my steps, Bowed down hath my soul, They have digged before me a pit, They have fallen into its midst. Selah. Psalm 57:7: Prepared is my heart, O God, Prepared is my heart, I sing and praise. Psalm 57:8: Awake, mine honour, awake, psaltery and harp, I awake the morning dawn. Psalm 57:9: I thank Thee among the peoples, O Lord, I praise Thee among the nations. Psalm 57:10: For great unto the heavens is Thy kindness, And unto the clouds Thy truth. Psalm 57:11: Be thou exalted above the heavens, O God. Above all the earth Thine honour!
