Psalms 57

invocabo Deum altissimum Deum ultorem meum

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

mittet de caelo et salvabit me exprobrabit conculcantibus me semper mittet Deus misericordiam suam et veritatem suam

I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me.

57:3

anima mea in medio leonum dormivit ferocientium filii hominum dentes eorum lancea et sagittae et lingua eorum gladius acutus

He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproach of him that would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.

57:4

exaltare super caelos Deus in omni terra gloria tua

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

rete paraverunt gressibus meis ad incurvandam animam meam foderunt ante me foveam ceciderunt in medium eius semper

Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.

57:6

paratum cor meum Deus paratum cor meum cantabo et psallam

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

surge gloria mea surge psalterium et cithara surgam mane

My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.

57:8

confitebor tibi in populis Domine cantabo tibi in gentibus

Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.

57:9

quia magna usque ad caelos misericordia tua et usque ad nubes veritas tua

I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing unto thee among the nations.

57:10

exaltare super caelos Deus in omni terra gloria tua

For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.

57:11

victori ut non disperdas David humilem et simplicem si vere utique iustitiam loquimini recta iudicate filii hominum

Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let thy glory be above all the earth.
