PSALM 57: To be read in Church after morning service, everything that you intend to do will prosper.

 With the Holy name Jesus Christ Of Nazareth. Its prayer is the prayer under Psalm 16.

Psalm 57

1 Have pity on me, O Elohim. Have pity on me,
    because my soul takes refuge in you.
        I will take refuge in the shadow of your wings
            until destructive storms pass by.
2 I call to Elohim Elyon,
    to El who does everything for me.
3 He sends his help from heaven and saves me.
    He disgraces the one who is harassing me. Selah
    Elohim sends his mercy and his truth!
4 My soul is surrounded by lions.
    I must lie down with man-eating lions.
    Their teeth are spears and arrows.
    Their tongues are sharp swords.
        
        Let your glory extend over the whole earth.

6 My enemies spread out a net to catch me.
    (My soul is bowed down.)
    They dug a pit to trap me,
    but then they fell into it. Selah
7 My heart is confident, O Elohim.
    My heart is confident.
    I want to sing and make music.
8 Wake up, my soul!
    Wake up, harp and lyre!
    I want to wake up at dawn.
9 I want to give thanks to you among the people, O Adonay.
    I want to make music to praise you among the nations
10 because your mercy is as high as the heavens.
    Your truth reaches the skies.

11 May you be honored above the heavens, O Elohim.
    Let your glory extend over the whole earth.

PRAYER:

Psalm 16

1 Protect me, O El, because I take refuge in you.

2 I said to Yahweh,

    “You are my Adonay. Without you, I have nothing good.”

3 Those who lead holy lives on earth

    are the noble ones who fill me with joy.

4 Those who quickly chase after other gods multiply their sorrows.

    I will not pour out their sacrificial offerings of blood

        or use my lips to speak their names.

5 Yahweh is my inheritance and my cup.

    You are the one who determines my destiny.

6 Your boundary lines mark out pleasant places for me.

    Indeed, my inheritance is something beautiful.

7 I will praise Yahweh, who advises me.

    My conscience warns me at night.

8 I always keep Yahweh in front of me.

    When he is by my side, I cannot be moved.

9         That is why my heart is glad and my soul rejoices.

            My body rests securely

10 because you do not abandon my soul to the grave

    or allow your holy one to decay.

11 You make the path of life known to me.

    Complete joy is in your presence.

        Pleasures are by your side forever.
