1 [To the chief Musician. 'Destroy not.' Of David. Michtam; when he fled from Saul in the cave.] Be gracious unto me, O God, be gracious unto me; for my soul taketh refuge in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings do I take refuge, until the calamities be overpast.
2 I will call unto God, the Most High; unto *God that performeth {all} for me.
3 He will send from the heavens and save me; he hath covered with reproach him that would swallow me up. Selah. God hath sent forth his loving-kindness and his truth.
4 My soul is in the midst of lions; I lie down {among} them that breathe out flames, the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
5 Be exalted above the heavens, O God; let thy glory be above all the earth!
6 They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul was bowed down: they have digged a pit before me; they are fallen into the midst thereof. Selah.
7 My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing, yea, I will sing psalms.
8 Awake, my glory; awake, lute and harp: I will wake the dawn.
9 I will give thee thanks among the peoples, O Lord; of thee will I sing psalms among the nations:
10 For thy loving-kindness is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.
11 Be exalted above the heavens, O God; let thy glory be above all the earth!
1 神啊， 求你恩待我！ 求你恩待我！ 因为我投靠你； 我要投靠在你翅膀的荫下， 直到灾害过去。
2 我要向至高的 神呼求， 就是向为我成就他旨意的 神呼求。
3 神从天上施恩拯救我， 斥责那践踏我的人； （细拉） 神必向我发出他的慈爱和信实。
4 我躺卧在狮子中间， 就是在那些想吞灭人的世人中间； 他们的牙齿是枪和箭， 他们的舌头是快刀。
5 神啊！ 愿你被尊崇， 过于诸天； 愿你的荣耀遍及全地。
6 他们为我的脚设下了网罗， 使我低头屈服； 他们在我面前挖了坑， 自己反掉进坑中。（细拉）
7 神啊！ 我的心坚定， 我的心坚定； 我要歌唱， 我要颂赞。
8 我的灵（"灵"或译： "荣耀"或"肝"； 与16:9， 30:12， 108:1同）啊！ 你要醒过来。琴和瑟啊！ 你们都要醒过来。我也要唤醒黎明。
9 主啊！ 我要在万民中称谢你， 在万族中歌颂你。
10 因为你的慈爱伟大， 高及诸天， 你的信实上达云霄。
11 神啊！ 愿你被尊崇， 过于诸天； 愿你的荣耀遍及全地。
