Let Your Glory Be over All the Earth

To the choirmaster: according to (A)Do Not Destroy. A (B)Miktam[a] of David, when he fled from Saul, in (C)the cave.

57 (D)Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me,
    for in you my soul (E)takes refuge;
in (F)the shadow of your wings I will take refuge,
    (G)till the storms of destruction pass by.
I cry out to God Most High,
    to God who (H)fulfills his purpose for me.
(I)He will send from heaven and save me;
    he will put to shame (J)him who tramples on me. Selah
(K)God will send out (L)his steadfast love and his faithfulness!

My soul is in the midst of (M)lions;
    I lie down amid fiery beasts—
the children of man, whose (N)teeth are spears and arrows,
    whose (O)tongues are sharp swords.

(P)Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!
    Let your glory be over all the earth!

They set (Q)a net for my steps;
    my soul was (R)bowed down.
They (S)dug a pit in my way,
    but they have fallen into it themselves. Selah
(T)My heart is (U)steadfast, O God,
    my heart is steadfast!
I will sing and make melody!
    (V)Awake, (W)my glory![b]
Awake, (X)O harp and lyre!
    I will awake the dawn!
I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the peoples;
    I will sing praises to you among the nations.
10 For your (Y)steadfast love is great to the heavens,
    your faithfulness to the clouds.

11 (Z)Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!
    Let your glory be over all the earth!

被敵圍困靠主施援

57 大衛逃避掃羅,藏在洞裡。那時,他作這金詩,交於伶長。調用休要毀壞。

神啊,求你憐憫我,憐憫我,因為我的心投靠你。我要投靠在你翅膀的蔭下,等到災害過去。
我要求告至高的神,就是為我成全諸事的神。
那要吞我的人辱罵我的時候,神從天上必施恩救我,也必向我發出慈愛和誠實。
我的性命在獅子中間,我躺臥在性如烈火的世人當中,他們的牙齒是槍、箭,他們的舌頭是快刀。
神啊,願你崇高過於諸天,願你的榮耀高過全地!
他們為我的腳設下網羅,壓制我的心。他們在我面前挖了坑,自己反掉在其中。(細拉)
神啊,我心堅定,我心堅定!我要唱詩,我要歌頌!
我的靈[a]啊,你當醒起!琴瑟啊,你們當醒起!我自己要極早醒起。
主啊,我要在萬民中稱謝你,在列邦中歌頌你。
10 因為你的慈愛高及諸天,你的誠實達到穹蒼。
11 神啊,願你崇高過於諸天,願你的榮耀高過全地!
