Bible, King James Version
Psalms
Pss.57
[1] 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.
[2] I will cry unto God most high; unto God that
performeth all things for me.
[3] He shall send from heaven, and save from the reproach
of him that would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his
mercy and his truth.
[4] 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.
[5] Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy
glory be above all the earth.
[6] 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.
[7] My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will
sing and give praise.
[8] Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself
will awake early.
[9] I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will
sing unto thee among the nations.
[10] For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy
truth unto the clouds.
[11] Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let thy
glory be above all the earth.
