To the chief MusicianH5329, AltaschithH516, MichtamH4387 of DavidH1732, when he fledH1272 fromH6440 SaulH7586 in the caveH4631. Be mercifulH2603 unto me, O GodH430, be mercifulH2603 unto me: for my soulH5315 trustethH2620 in thee: yea, in the shadowH6738 of thy wingsH3671 will I make my refugeH2620, until these calamitiesH1942 be overpastH5674. {Altaschith: or, Destroy not}
I will cryH7121 unto GodH430 most highH5945; unto GodH410 that performethH1584 all things for me.
He shall sendH7971 from heavenH8064, and saveH3467 me from the reproachH2778 of him that would swallow me upH7602. SelahH5542. GodH430 shall send forthH7971 his mercyH2617 and his truthH571. {from the…: or, he reproacheth him that}
My soulH5315 is amongH8432 lionsH3833: and I lieH7901 even among them that are set on fireH3857, even the sonsH1121 of menH120, whose teethH8127 are spearsH2595 and arrowsH2671, and their tongueH3956 a sharpH2299 swordH2719.
Be thou exaltedH7311, O GodH430, above the heavensH8064; let thy gloryH3519 be above all the earthH776.
They have preparedH3559 a netH7568 for my stepsH6471; my soulH5315 is bowed downH3721: they have diggedH3738 a pitH7882 beforeH6440 me, into the midstH8432 whereof they are fallenH5307 themselves. SelahH5542.
My heartH3820 is fixedH3559, O GodH430, my heartH3820 is fixedH3559: I will singH7891 and give praiseH2167. {fixed: or, prepared}
Awake upH5782, my gloryH3519; awakeH5782, psalteryH5035 and harpH3658: I myself will awakeH5782 earlyH7837.
I will praiseH3034 thee, O LordH136, among the peopleH5971: I will singH2167 unto thee among the nationsH3816.
For thy mercyH2617 is greatH1419 unto the heavensH8064, and thy truthH571 unto the cloudsH7834.
Be thou exaltedH7311, O GodH430, above the heavensH8064: let thy gloryH3519 be above all the earthH776.
Querverweise zu Psalm 57,3 Ps 57,3
In my distressH6862 I calledH7121 upon the LORDH3068, and criedH7768 unto my GodH430: he heardH8085 my voiceH6963 out of his templeH1964, and my cryH7775 cameH935 beforeH6440 him, even into his earsH241.
Then the earthH776 shookH1607 and trembledH7493; the foundationsH4146 also of the hillsH2022 movedH7264 and were shakenH1607, because he was wrothH2734.
There went upH5927 a smokeH6227 out of his nostrilsH639, and fireH784 out of his mouthH6310 devouredH398: coalsH1513 were kindledH1197 by it. {out of his nostrils: Heb. by his, etc}
He bowedH5186 the heavensH8064 also, and came downH3381: and darknessH6205 was under his feetH7272.
And he rodeH7392 upon a cherubH3742, and did flyH5774: yea, he did flyH1675 upon the wingsH3671 of the windH7307.
He madeH7896 darknessH2822 his secret placeH5643; his pavilionH5521 round aboutH5439 him were darkH2824 watersH4325 and thick cloudsH5645 of the skiesH7834.
At the brightnessH5051 that was before him his thick cloudsH5645 passedH5674, hailH1259 stones and coalsH1513 of fireH784.
The LORDH3068 also thunderedH7481 in the heavensH8064, and the HighestH5945 gaveH5414 his voiceH6963; hailH1259 stones and coalsH1513 of fireH784.
Yea, he sent outH7971 his arrowsH2671, and scatteredH6327 them; and he shot outH7232 lightningsH1300, and discomfitedH2000 them.
Then the channelsH650 of watersH4325 were seenH7200, and the foundationsH4146 of the worldH8398 were discoveredH1540 at thy rebukeH1606, O LORDH3068, at the blastH5397 of the breathH7307 of thy nostrilsH639.
He sentH7971 from aboveH4791, he tookH3947 me, he drewH4871 me out of manyH7227 watersH4325. {many: or, great}
He deliveredH5337 me from my strongH5794 enemyH341, and from them which hatedH8130 me: for they were too strongH553 for me.
They preventedH6923 me in the dayH3117 of my calamityH343: but the LORDH3068 was my stayH4937.
He brought me forthH3318 also into a large placeH4800; he deliveredH2502 me, because he delightedH2654 in me.
The LORDH3068 rewardedH1580 me according to my righteousnessH6664; according to the cleannessH1252 of my handsH3027 hath he recompensedH7725 me.
For I have keptH8104 the waysH1870 of the LORDH3068, and have not wickedly departedH7561 from my GodH430.
For all his judgmentsH4941 were before me, and I did not put awayH5493 his statutesH2708 from me.
I was also uprightH8549 before him, and I keptH8104 myself from mine iniquityH5771. {before: Heb. with}
Therefore hath the LORDH3068 recompensedH7725 me according to my righteousnessH6664, according to the cleannessH1252 of my handsH3027 in his eyesightH5869. {in…: Heb. before his eyes}
With the mercifulH2623 thou wilt shew thyself mercifulH2616; with an uprightH8549 manH1399 thou wilt shew thyself uprightH8552;
With the pureH1305 thou wilt shew thyself pureH1305; and with the frowardH6141 thou wilt shew thyself frowardH6617. {shew thyself froward: or, wrestle}
For thou wilt saveH3467 the afflictedH6041 peopleH5971; but wilt bring downH8213 highH7311 looksH5869.
For thou wilt lightH215 my candleH5216: the LORDH3068 my GodH430 will enlightenH5050 my darknessH2822. {candle: or, lamp}
For by thee I have run throughH7323 a troopH1416; and by my GodH430 have I leaped overH1801 a wallH7791. {run…: or, broken}
As for GodH410, his wayH1870 is perfectH8549: the wordH565 of the LORDH3068 is triedH6884: he is a bucklerH4043 to all those that trustH2620 in him. {tried: or, refined}
For who is GodH433 saveH1107 the LORDH3068? or who is a rockH6697 saveH2108 our GodH430?
It is GodH410 that girdethH247 me with strengthH2428, and makethH5414 my wayH1870 perfectH8549.
He makethH7737 my feetH7272 like hinds'H355 feet, and settethH5975 me upon my high placesH1116.
He teachethH3925 my handsH3027 to warH4421, so that a bowH7198 of steelH5154 is brokenH5181 by mine armsH2220.
Thou hast also givenH5414 me the shieldH4043 of thy salvationH3468: and thy right handH3225 hath holden me upH5582, and thy gentlenessH6037 hath made me greatH7235. {thy gentleness…: or, with thy meekness thou hast multiplied me}
Thou hast enlargedH7337 my stepsH6806 under me, that my feetH7166 did not slipH4571. {my feet: Heb. mine ankles}
I have pursuedH7291 mine enemiesH341, and overtakenH5381 them: neither did I turn againH7725 till they were consumedH3615.
I have woundedH4272 them that they were not ableH3201 to riseH6965: they are fallenH5307 under my feetH7272.
For thou hast girdedH247 me with strengthH2428 unto the battleH4421: thou hast subduedH3766 under me those that rose upH6965 against me. {subdued: Heb. caused to bow}
Thou hast also givenH5414 me the necksH6203 of mine enemiesH341; that I might destroyH6789 them that hateH8130 me.
They criedH7768, but there was none to saveH3467 them: even unto the LORDH3068, but he answeredH6030 them not.
Then did I beatH7833 them small as the dustH6083 beforeH6440 the windH7307: I did cast them outH7324 as the dirtH2916 in the streetsH2351.
Thou hast deliveredH6403 me from the strivingsH7379 of the peopleH5971; and thou hast madeH7760 me the headH7218 of the heathenH1471: a peopleH5971 whom I have not knownH3045 shall serveH5647 me.
As soon as they hearH8088+H241 of me, they shall obeyH8085 me: the strangersH1121+H5236 shall submitH3584 themselves unto me. {As soon…: Heb. At the hearing of the ear} {submit…: or, yield feigned obedience} {strangers: Heb. sons of the stranger}
The strangersH1121+H5236 shall fade awayH5034, and be afraidH2727 out of their close placesH4526. {strangers: Heb. sons of the stranger}
The LORDH3068 livethH2416; and blessedH1288 be my rockH6697; and let the GodH430 of my salvationH3468 be exaltedH7311.
It is GodH410 that avengethH5414+H5360 me, and subduethH1696 the peopleH5971 under me. {avengeth: Heb. giveth avengements for} {subdueth: or, destroyeth}
He deliverethH6403 me from mine enemiesH341: yea, thou liftest me upH7311 above those that rise upH6965 against me: thou hast deliveredH5337 me from the violentH2555 manH376. {violent…: Heb. man of violence}
Therefore will I give thanksH3034 unto thee, O LORDH3068, among the heathenH1471, and sing praisesH2167 unto thy nameH8034. {give…: or, confess}
GreatH1431 deliveranceH3444 giveth he to his kingH4428; and shewethH6213 mercyH2617 to his anointedH4899, to DavidH1732, and to his seedH2233 forH5704 evermoreH5769.
To the chief MusicianH5329 upon JonathelemrechokimH3128, MichtamH4387 of DavidH1732, when the PhilistinesH6430 tookH270 him in GathH1661. Be mercifulH2603 unto me, O GodH430: for manH582 would swallow me upH7602; he fightingH3898 dailyH3117 oppressethH3905 me. {Michtam…: or, A golden Psalm of David}
WithholdH3607 not thou thy tender merciesH7356 from me, O LORDH3068: let thy lovingkindnessH2617 and thy truthH571 continuallyH8548 preserveH5341 me.
BowH5186 thy heavensH8064, O LORDH3068, and come downH3381: touchH5060 the mountainsH2022, and they shall smokeH6225.
Cast forthH1299 lightningH1300, and scatterH6327 them: shoot outH7971 thine arrowsH2671, and destroyH2000 them.
SendH7971 thine handH3027 from aboveH4791; ridH6475 me, and deliverH5337 me out of greatH7227 watersH4325, from the handH3027 of strangeH5236 childrenH1121; {hand from: Heb. hands from}
Mine enemiesH8324 would dailyH3117 swallowH7602 me up: for they be manyH7227 that fightH3898 against me, O thou most HighH4791. {enemies: Heb. observers}
O send outH7971 thy lightH216 and thy truthH571: let them leadH5148 me; let them bringH935 me unto thy holyH6944 hillH2022, and to thy tabernaclesH4908.
AndG2532, beholdG2400, there wasG1096 a greatG3173 earthquakeG4578: forG1063 the angelG32 of the LordG2962 descendedG2597 fromG1537 heavenG3772, and cameG4334 and rolled backG617 the stoneG3037 fromG575 the doorG2374, andG2532 satG2521 uponG1883 itG846. {was: or, had been}
HisG846 countenanceG2397 wasG2258 likeG5613 lightningG796, andG2532 hisG846 raimentG1742 whiteG3022 asG5616 snowG5510:
AndG1161 forG575 fearG5401 of himG846 the keepersG5083 did shakeG4579, andG2532 becameG1096 asG5616 deadG3498 men.
AndG1161 the angelG32 answeredG611 and saidG2036 unto the womenG1135, FearG5399 notG3361 yeG5210: forG1063 I knowG1492 thatG3754 ye seekG2212 JesusG2424, whichG3588 was crucifiedG4717.
He isG2076 notG3756 hereG5602: forG1063 he is risenG1453, asG2531 he saidG2036. ComeG1205, seeG1492 the placeG5117 whereG3699 the LordG2962 layG2749.
He shall abideH3427 beforeH6440 GodH430 for everH5769: O prepareH4487 mercyH2617 and truthH571, which may preserveH5341 him.
ForG3754 the lawG3551 was givenG1325 byG1223 MosesG3475, but graceG5485 andG2532 truthG225 cameG1096 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
AndG2532 when PeterG4074 was comeG1096 toG1722 himselfG1438, he saidG2036, NowG3568 I knowG1492 of a suretyG230, thatG3754 the LordG2962 hath sentG1821 hisG846 angelG32, andG2532 hath deliveredG1807 meG3165 out ofG1537 the handG5495 of HerodG2264, andG2532 from allG3956 the expectationG4329 of the peopleG2992 of the JewsG2453.
Behold, the peopleH5971 shall rise upH6965 as a great lionH3833, and lift upH5375 himself as a young lionH738: he shall not lie downH7901 until he eatH398 of the preyH2964, and drinkH8354 the bloodH1818 of the slainH2491.
If the menH4962 of my tabernacleH168 saidH559 not, Oh that we hadH5414 of his fleshH1320! we cannot be satisfiedH7646.
