Psalms 57:1-5

112Be mercifulH2603 unto me, O GodH430, be mercifulH2603 unto me: for my soulH5315 trustethH2620 in thee: yea, in the shadowH6738 of thy wingsH3671 will I make my refugeH2620, until these calamitiesH1942 be overpastH5674.

2I will cryH7121 unto GodH430 most highH5945; unto GodH410 that performethH1584 all things for me.

3He shall sendH7971 from heavenH8064, and saveH3467 me from the reproachH2778 of him that would swallow me upH7602. SelahH5542. GodH430 shall send forthH7971 his mercyH2617 and his truthH571.3

4My soulH5315 is amongH8432 lionsH3833: and I lieH7901 even among them that are set on fireH3857, even the sonsH1121 of menH120, whose teethH8127 are spearsH2595 and arrowsH2671, and their tongueH3956 a sharpH2299 swordH2719.

5Be thou exaltedH7311, O GodH430, above the heavensH8064; let thy gloryH3519 be above all the earthH776.
