Scripture Passage:

Psalm 57 (ESV)

To the choirmaster: according to Do Not Destroy. A Miktam of David, when he fled from Saul, in the cave.

Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me,    for in you my soul takes refuge;in the shadow of your wings I will take refuge,    till the storms of destruction pass by.2 I cry out to God Most High,    to God who fulfills his purpose for me.3 He will send from heaven and save me;    he will put to shame him who tramples on me. SelahGod will send out his steadfast love and his faithfulness!

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

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

6 They set a net for my steps;    my soul was bowed down.They dug a pit in my way,    but they have fallen into it themselves. Selah7 My heart is steadfast, O God,    my heart is steadfast!I will sing and make melody!8     Awake, my glory!Awake, O harp and lyre!    I will awake the dawn!9 I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the peoples;    I will sing praises to you among the nations.10 For your steadfast love is great to the heavens,    your faithfulness to the clouds.

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