- 0:02Speaker 1: Psalm fifty seven for the Chief Musician, to the tune
- 0:06Speaker 1: of do not destroy, a poem by David when he
- 0:10Speaker 1: fled from Saul in the cave. Be merciful to me, God,
- 0:15Speaker 1: be merciful to me, for my soul takes refuge in you, Yes,
- 0:20Speaker 1: and the shadow of your wings. I will take refuge
- 0:22Speaker 1: until disaster has passed. I cry out to God Most High,
- 0:27Speaker 1: to God who accomplishes my request for me. He will
- 0:30Speaker 1: send from heaven and save me. He rebukes the one
- 0:34Speaker 1: who is pursuing me. God will send out his loving
- 0:37Speaker 1: kindness and his truth. My soul is among lions. I
- 0:41Speaker 1: lie among those who are set on fire, even the
- 0:44Speaker 1: sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and
- 0:48Speaker 1: their tongue a sharp sword. Be exalted God above the heavens.
- 0:52Speaker 1: Let your glory be above all the earth. They have
- 0:56Speaker 1: prepared a net for my steps. My soul is bowed down.
- 1:00Speaker 1: They dug a pit before me. They fall into the
- 1:03Speaker 1: midst of it themselves. My heart is steadfast, God, My
- 1:07Speaker 1: heart is steadfast. I will sing, Yes, I will sing praises.
- 1:12Speaker 1: Wake up my glory, Wake up sultry and harp. I
- 1:15Speaker 1: will wake up the dawn. I will give thanks to
- 1:18Speaker 1: you Lord, among the peoples. I will sing praises to
- 1:21Speaker 1: you among the nations, for your great loving kindness reaches
- 1:25Speaker 1: to the heavens, and your truth to the skies. Be exalted,
- 1:30Speaker 1: God above the heavens, Let your glory be over all
- 1:34Speaker 1: the earth.
