Psalms 57

KING JAMES BIBLE	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 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.	1 Unto the end, destroy not, for David, for an inscription of a title, when he fled from Saul into the cave
2 I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me.	2 Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy on me: for my soul trusteth in thee. And in the shadow of thy wings will I hope, until iniquity pass away.
3 He shall send from heaven, and save from the reproach of him that would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.	3 I will cry to God the most High; to God who hath done good to me.
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.	4 He hath sent from heaven and delivered me: he hath made them a reproach that trod upon me. God hath sent his mercy and his truth,
5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.	5 and he hath delivered my soul from the midst of the young lions. I slept troubled. The sons of men, whose teeth are weapons and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
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.	6 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, and thy glory above all the earth.
7 My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.	7 They prepared a snare for my feet; and they bowed down my soul. They dug a pit before my face, and they are fallen into it.
8 Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.	8 My heart is ready, O God, my heart is ready: I will Sing, and rehearse a psalm.
9 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing unto thee among the nations.	9 Arise, O my glory, arise psaltery and harp: I will arise early.
10 For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.	10 I will give praise to thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing a psalm to thee among the nations.
11 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let thy glory be above all the earth.	11 For thy mercy is magnified even to the heavens: and thy truth unto the clouds.
	12 Be thou exalted, O God, above the l heavens: and thy glory above all the earth.
