Psalm 57:1-3
Jubilee Bible 2000

To the Overcomer upon, Do not destroy, Michtam of David, when he fled from the presence of Saul in the cave.

1 ¶ Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusts in thee; and in the shadow of thy wings I will make my refuge until these calamities are overpast.

2 I will cry unto God most high, unto God that performs all things for me.

3 He shall send from the heavens and save me from the reproach of him that would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.
