Red-Letter King James Bible 1769 Edition (KJV)

1 David in prayer fleeing unto God complaineth of his dangerous case. 7 He encourageth himself to praise God.

57:1 ¶ [[To the chief Musician, 5329 z8764 Altaschith, 516 z8686 Michtam 4387 of David, 1732 when he fled 1272 z8800 from 6440 x4480 Saul 7586 in the cave.]] 4631 Be merciful 2603 z8798 unto me, O God, 430 be merciful 2603 z8798 unto me: for x3588 my soul 5315 trusteth 2620 z8804 in thee: yea, in the shadow 6738 of thy wings 3671 will I make my refuge, 2620 z8799 until x5704 [these] calamities 1942 be overpast. 5674 z8799

57:2 I will cry 7121 z8799 unto God 430 most high; 5945 unto God 410 that performeth 1584 z8802 [all things] for x5921 me.

57:3 He shall send 7971 z8799 from heaven, 8064 x4480 and save 3467 z8686 me [from] the reproach 2778 z8765 of him that would swallow me up. 7602 z8802 Selah. 5542 God 430 shall send forth 7971 z8799 his mercy 2617 and his truth. 571

57:4 My soul 5315 [is] among 8432 lions: 3833 [and] I lie 7901 z8799 [even among] them that are set on fire, 3857 z8802 [even] the sons 1121 of men, 120 whose teeth 8127 [are] spears 2595 and arrows, 2671 and their tongue 3956 a sharp 2299 sword. 2719

57:5 Be thou exalted, 7311 z8798 O God, 430 above x5921 the heavens; 8064 [let] thy glory 3519 [be] above x5921 all x3605 the earth. 776

57:6 They have prepared 3559 z8689 a net 7568 for my steps; 6471 my soul 5315 is bowed down: 3721 z8804 they have digged 3738 z8804 a pit 7882 before 6440 me, into the midst 8432 whereof they are fallen 5307 z8804 [themselves]. Selah. 5542

57:7 My heart 3820 is fixed, 3559 z8737 O God, 430 my heart 3820 is fixed: 3559 z8737 I will sing 7891 z8799 and give praise. 2167 z8762

57:8 Awake up, 5782 z8798 my glory; 3519 awake, 5782 z8798 psaltery 5035 and harp: 3658 I [myself] will awake 5782 z8686 early. 7837

57:9 I will praise 3034 z8686 thee, O Lord, 136 among the people: 5971 I will sing 2167 z8762 unto thee among the nations. 3816

57:10 For x3588 thy mercy 2617 [is] great 1419 unto x5704 the heavens, 8064 and thy truth 571 unto x5704 the clouds. 7834

57:11 Be thou exalted, 7311 z8798 O God, 430 above x5921 the heavens: 8064 [let] thy glory 3519 [be] above x5921 all x3605 the earth. 776
