The book ofPsalms57Tap a verse to save, highlight, or reflect.1Have 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.2I cry out to God Most High, to God who fulfills His purpose for me.3He reaches down from heaven and saves me; He rebukes those who trample me. Selah God sends forth His loving devotion and His truth.4My soul is among the lions; I lie down with ravenous beasts—with men whose teeth are spears and arrows, whose tongues are sharp swords.5Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; may Your glory cover all the earth.6They spread a net for my feet; my soul was despondent. They dug a pit before me, but they themselves have fallen into it! Selah7My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast. I will sing and make music.8Awake, my glory! Awake, O harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn.9I will praise You, O Lord, among the nations; I will sing Your praises among the peoples.10For Your loving devotion reaches to the heavens, and Your faithfulness to the clouds.11Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; may Your glory cover all the earth.
