For the music director, “Do Not Destroy,” a Michtam of David, when he fled from Saul, in the cave. Be gracious to me, O God, be gracious to me, for in You my soul takes refuge. In the shadow of Your wings I take refuge, until destruction passes by. I will cry out to El Elyon, to God who accomplishes it for me. He will send from heaven and save me. He rebukes the one trampling on me. Selah God is sending His mercy and His truth. My soul is in the midst of lions. I lie among those breathing fire— sons of men whose teeth are spears and arrows, whose tongue is a sharp sword. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens. Let Your glory be over all the earth! They spread a net for my steps, my soul is bowed down. They have dug a pit before me— they fell into it themselves. Selah My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast. I will sing, yes, I will make music. Awake, my glory! Awake, harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn. I will praise You, my Lord, among the peoples. I will sing praises to You among the nations. For Your lovingkindness is great up to the heavens, and Your truth to the skies.
