Awit 57
Ang Dating Biblia (1905)
57 Maawa ka sa akin, Oh Dios, maawa ka sa akin; sapagka't ang aking kaluluwa ay nanganganlong sa iyo. Oo, sa lilim ng iyong mga pakpak ay manganganlong ako, hanggang sa makaraan ang mga kasakunaang ito.
2 Ako'y dadaing sa Dios na Kataastaasan; sa Dios na nagsagawa ng lahat na mga bagay sa akin.
3 Siya'y magsusugo mula sa langit, at ililigtas ako, pagka yaong lulunok sa akin ay dumuduwahagi; (Selah) susuguin ng Dios ang kaniyang kagandahang-loob at ang kaniyang katotohanan.
4 Ang aking kaluluwa ay nasa gitna ng mga leon: ako'y nahihiga sa gitna niyaong mga pinaningasan ng apoy, sa mga anak ng tao, na ang mga ngipin ay sibat at mga pana, at ang kanilang dila ay matalas na tabak.
5 Mabunyi ka, Oh Dios, sa itaas ng mga langit; mataas ang iyong kaluwalhatian sa buong lupa.
6 Kanilang hinandaan ng silo ang aking mga hakbang. Ang aking kaluluwa ay nakayuko: sila'y nagsihukay ng isang lungaw sa harap ko. Sila'y nangahulog sa gitna niyaon. (Selah)
7 Ang aking puso ay matatag, Oh Dios, ang aking puso ay matatag: ako'y aawit, oo, ako'y aawit ng mga pagpuri.
8 Gumising ka, kaluwalhatian ko; gumising ka, salterio at alpa: ako'y gigising na maaga.
9 Ako'y magpapasalamat sa iyo, Oh Panginoon, sa gitna ng mga bayan: ako'y aawit sa iyo ng mga pagpuri sa gitna ng mga bansa.
10 Sapagka't ang iyong kagandahang-loob ay dakila hanggang sa mga langit, at ang iyong katotohanan hanggang sa mga alapaap.
11 Mabunyi ka, Oh Dios, sa itaas ng mga langit; mataas ang iyong kaluwalhatian sa buong lupa.
Psalm 57
New King James Version
Prayer for Safety from Enemies(A)
To the Chief Musician. Set to [a]“Do Not Destroy.” A Michtam of David (B)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;
(C)And in the shadow of Your wings I will make my refuge,
(D)Until these calamities have passed by.
2 I will cry out to God Most High,
To God (E)who performs all things for me.
3 (F)He shall send from heaven and save me;
He reproaches the one who [b]would swallow me up. Selah
God (G)shall send forth His mercy and His truth.
4 My soul is among lions;
I lie among the sons of men
Who are set on fire,
(H)Whose teeth are spears and arrows,
And their tongue a sharp sword.
5 (I)Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
Let Your glory be above all the earth.
6 (J)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
7 (K)My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast;
I will sing and give praise.
8 Awake, (L)my glory!
Awake, lute and harp!
I will awaken the dawn.
9 (M)I will praise You, O Lord, among the peoples;
I will sing to You among the [c]nations.
10 (N)For Your mercy reaches unto the heavens,
And Your truth unto the clouds.
11 (O)Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
Let Your glory be above all the earth.

King James Version
57 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 me 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.
