Behold the power of God in the Psalms!

The future proves the past.

 

Psalm 57:

Praise and Assurance under Persecution

A Miktam of David, when he fled from Saul, in the cave.

 

57 Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me,

for in thee my soul takes refuge;

in the shadow of thy wings I will take refuge,

till the storms of destruction pass by.

2 I cry 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 those who trample upon me. Selah

God will send forth his mercy and his faithfulness!

 

4 I lie in the midst of lions

that greedily devour the sons of men;

their teeth are spears and arrows,

their tongues sharp swords.

 

5 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!

Let thy 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. Selah

7 My heart is steadfast, O God,

my heart is steadfast!

I will sing and make melody!

8 Awake, my soul!

Awake, O harp and lyre!

I will awake the dawn!

9 I will give thanks to thee, O Lord, among the peoples;

I will sing praises to thee among the nations.

10 For thy mercy is great to the heavens,

thy faithfulness to the clouds.

 

11 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!

Let thy glory be over all the earth!
