Berean Standard Bible

Psalms 57:1-4

1 1Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy,for in You my soul takes refuge.In the shadow of Your wings I will take shelteruntil the danger has passed.2I cry out to God Most High,2to God who fulfills His purpose for me.3He reaches down from heaven and saves me;He rebukes those who trample me.SelahGod sends forthHis 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.
