To the chief Musician, * Al-taschith, * Michtam of David, * when he fled from Saul in the cave.
Be amerciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me:
For my soul btrusteth in thee:
Yea, cin the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge,
dUntil these ecalamities be overpast.
2 I will cry unto God most High;
Unto God that fperformeth all things for me.
3 gHe shall send from heaven, and save me
* From the reproach of him that would hswallow me up. Selah.
God shall send forth ihis mercy and his truth.
And I lie even among them that are set on fire, even the sons of men,
Whose lteeth are spears and arrows,
And mtheir tongue na sharp sword.
5 oBe thou exalted, O God, above the heavens;
Let thy glory be above all the earth.
6 They have prepared pa net for my steps;
My soul is ppbowed down:
qThey have digged a pit before me,
Into the midst whereof they are fallen themselves. Selah.
7 rMy heart is * fixed, O God, my heart is fixed:
I will sing and give praise.
8 sAwake up, tmy glory; awake, upsaltery and uharp:
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 xthy mercy is great unto the heavens,
And thy truth unto the clouds.
11 oBe thou exalted, O God, above the heavens:
Let thy glory be above all the earth.
