57:1 [To the chiefe musician Al-taschith, Michtam of Dauid, when hee fled from Saul in the caue.] Be mercifull vnto mee, O God, be merciful vnto me, for my soule trusteth in thee: yea in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, vntill these calamities bee ouerpast. Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast.
57:2 I will crie vnto God most high: vnto God that perfourmeth all things for mee. I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me.

57:4 My soule is among lyons, and I lie euen among them that are set on fire: euen the sonnes of men, whose teeth are speares and arrowes, and their tongue a sharpe sword. My soul is among lions: and I lie even among them 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, aboue the heauens: let thy glory be aboue all the earth. Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.
57:6 They haue prepared a net for my steppes, my soule is bowed downe: they haue digged a pit before me, into the midst whereof they are fallen themselues. Selah. They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down: they have digged a pit before me, into the midst whereof they are fallen themselves. Selah.
57:7 My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing, and giue praise. My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.
57:8 Awake vp my glory, awake psalterie and harpe; I my selfe will awake early. Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
57:9 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people; I will sing vnto thee among the nations. I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing unto thee among the nations.
57:10 For thy mercy is great vnto the heauens, and thy trueth vnto the clouds. For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.
57:11 Be thou exalted, O God, aboue the heauens: let thy glory be aboue all the earth. Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let thy glory be above all the earth.
