Psalm 57:1-11 (NKJV)

Prayer for Safety from Enemies

To the Chief Musician. Set to “Do Not Destroy.”[a] A Michtam of David when he fled from Saul into the cave.

57 Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me!For my soul trusts in You;And in the shadow of Your wings I will make my refuge,Until these calamities have passed by.

I will cry out to God Most High,To God who performs all things for me.He shall send from heaven and save me;He reproaches the one who would swallow me up. SelahGod shall send forth His mercy and His truth.

My soul is among lions;I lie among the sons of menWho are set on fire,Whose teeth are spears and arrows,And their tongue a sharp sword.Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;Let Your glory be above all the earth.

They have prepared a net for my steps;My soul is bowed down;They have dug a pit before me;Into the midst of it they themselves have fallen. Selah

My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast;I will sing and give praise.Awake, my glory!Awake, lute and harp!I will awaken the dawn.

I will praise You, O Lord, among the peoples;I will sing to You among the nations.10 For Your mercy reaches unto the heavens,And Your truth unto the clouds.

11 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;Let Your glory be above all the earth.
