Psalms 57:1

Psalm 57

For the music director; according to the al-tashcheth style; a prayer of David, written when he fled from Saul into the cave.

57:1 Have mercy on me, O God! Have mercy on me!

For in you I have taken shelter.

In the shadow of your wings I take shelter

until trouble passes.

Psalm 142

A well-written song by David, when he was in the cave; a prayer.

to the Lord I plead for mercy.
