Mga Salmo 57 - Berean Standard

In You My Soul Takes Refuge

For the choirmaster. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A Miktam of David, when he fled from Saul into the cave.

Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy,

for in You my soul takes refuge.

In the shadow of Your wings I will take shelter

until the danger has passed.

I cry out to God Most High,

to God who fulfills His purpose for me.

He reaches down from heaven and saves me;

He rebukes those who trample me.

Selah

God sends forth

His loving devotion and His truth.

My soul is among the lions;

I lie down with ravenous beasts—

with men whose teeth are spears and arrows,

whose tongues are sharp swords.

Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;

may Your glory cover all the earth.

They spread a net for my feet;

my soul was despondent.

They dug a pit before me,

but they themselves have fallen into it!

Selah

My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast.

I will sing and make music.

Awake, my glory!

Awake, O harp and lyre!

I will awaken the dawn.

I will praise You, O Lord, among the nations;

I will sing Your praises among the peoples.

For Your loving devotion reaches to the heavens,

and Your faithfulness to the clouds.

Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;

may Your glory cover all the earth.
