Psalm 56
1 BE MERCIFUL and gracious to me, O God, for man would trample me or devour me; all the day long the adversary oppresses me.2 They that lie in wait for me would swallow me up or trample me all day long, for they are many who fight against me, O Most High!3 What time I am afraid, I will have confidence in and put my trust and reliance in You.4 By [the help of] God I will praise His word; on God I lean, rely, and confidently put my trust; I will not fear. What can man, who is flesh, do to me?5 All day long they twist my words and trouble my affairs; all their thoughts are against me for evil and my hurt.6 They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they watch my steps, even as they have [expectantly] waited for my life.7 They think to escape with iniquity, and shall they? In Your indignation bring down the peoples, O God.8 You number and record my wanderings; put my tears into Your bottle--are they not in Your book?9 Then shall my enemies turn back in the day that I cry out; this I know, for God is for me. 10 In God, Whose word I praise, in the Lord, Whose word I praise,11 In God have I put my trust and confident reliance; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?12 Your vows are upon me, O God; I will render praise to You and give You thank offerings.13 For You have delivered my life from death, yes, and my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of life and of the living.
Psalm 57
1 BE MERCIFUL and gracious to me, O God, be merciful and gracious to me, for my soul takes refuge and finds shelter and confidence in You; yes, in the shadow of Your wings will I take refuge and be confident until calamities and destructive storms are passed.2 I will cry to God Most High, Who performs on my behalf and rewards me [Who brings to pass His purposes for me and surely completes them]!3 He will send from heaven and save me from the slanders and reproaches of him who would trample me down or swallow me up, and He will put him to shame. Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]! God will send forth His mercy and loving-kindness and His truth and faithfulness.4 My life is among lions; I must lie among those who are aflame--the sons of men whose teeth are spears and arrows, their tongues 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 very life was bowed down. They dug a pit in my way; into the midst of it they themselves have fallen. Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!7 My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is steadfast and confident! I will sing and make melody.8 Awake, my glory (my inner self); awake, harp and lyre! I will awake right early [I will awaken the dawn]!9 I will praise and give thanks to You, O Lord, among the peoples; I will sing praises to You among the nations.10 For Your mercy and loving-kindness are great, reaching to the heavens, and Your truth and faithfulness to the clouds.11 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let Your glory be over all the earth.
Psalm 58
1 DO YOU indeed in silence speak righteousness, O you mighty ones? [Or is the righteousness, rightness, and justice you should speak quite dumb?] Do you judge fairly and uprightly, O you sons of men?2 No, in your heart you devise wickedness; you deal out in the land the violence of your hands.3 The ungodly are perverse and estranged from the womb; they go astray as soon as they are born, speaking lies.4 Their poison is like the venom of a serpent; they are like the deaf adder or asp that stops its ear,5 Which listens not to the voice of charmers or of the enchanter never casting spells so cunningly.6 Break their teeth, O God, in their mouths; break out the fangs of the young lions, O Lord.7 Let them melt away as water which runs on apace; when he aims his arrows, let them be as if they were headless or split apart.8 Let them be as a snail dissolving slime as it passes on or as a festering sore which wastes away, like [the child to which] a woman gives untimely birth that has not seen the sun.9 Before your pots can feel the thorns [that are placed under them for fuel], He will take them away as with a whirlwind, the green and the burning ones alike.10 The [unyieldingly] righteous shall rejoice when he sees the vengeance; he will bathe his feet in the blood of the wicked.11 Men will say, Surely there is a reward for the [uncompromisingly] righteous; surely there is a God Who judges on the earth.
