To you my soul takes refuge

(1 Samuel 22:1-5; Psalm 108:1-13; Psalm 142:1-7)
1
For the chief musician; set to Al Tashheth. A psalm of David. A michtam; when he fled from Saul, in the cave. Be merciful to me, God, be merciful to me, for I take refuge in you until these troubles are over. I stay under your wings for protection until this destruction is over.
2
I will cry to God Most High, to God, who does all things for me.
3
He will send help from heaven and save me, he is angry with those who crush me. Selah. God will send me his loving kindness and his faithfulness.
4
My life is among lions; I am among those who are ready to devour me. I am among people whose teeth are spears and arrows, and whose tongues are sharp swords.
5
Be exalted, God, above the heavens; let your glory be above all the earth.
6
They spread out a net for my feet; I was distressed. They dug a pit in front of me. They themselves have fallen into the middle of it! Selah.
7
My heart is fixed, God, my heart is fixed; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises.
8
Wake up, my honored heart; wake up, lute and harp; I will wake up the dawn.
9
I will give thanks to you, Lord, among the peoples; I will sing praises to you among the nations.
10
For great is your unfailing love, reaching to the heavens; and your faithfulness to the clouds.
11
Be exalted, God, above the heavens; may your glory be exalted over all the earth.

To you my soul takes refuge

(1 Samuel 22:1-5; Psalm 108:1-13; Psalm 142:1-7)
1
Be merciful to me, God, be merciful to me, for my soul takes refuge in you. Yes, in the shadow of your wings, I will take refuge, until disaster has passed.
2
I cry out to God Most High, to God who accomplishes my requests for me.
3
He will send from heaven, and save me, he rebukes the one who is pursuing me. Selah. God will send out his loving kindness and his truth.
4
My soul is among lions. I lie among those who are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
5
Be exalted, God, above the heavens! Let your glory be above all the earth!
6
They have prepared a net for my steps. My soul is bowed down. They dig a pit before me. They fall into the middle of it themselves. Selah.
7
My heart is steadfast, God. My heart is steadfast. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises.
8
Wake up, my glory! Wake up, lute and harp! I will wake up the dawn.
9
I will give thanks to you, Lord, among the peoples. I will sing praises to you among the nations.
10
For your great loving kindness reaches to the heavens, and your truth to the skies.
11
Be exalted, God, above the heavens. Let your glory be over all the earth.
