- Kapitel 57 -

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.
