Psalms 57 — 4 originals side by side

Versification differs between traditions. Columns are aligned by verse number; where a text has no such verse the cell is left blank rather than forced into line. Tap any word for a gloss.

⚠️ The Chinese and English alongside are the CUV and the WEB, both translated from the Masoretic Text; they follow a different textual tradition from the Greek and Latin shown here and will disagree in places.
ℹ️ Some verses here have no matching verse in the public-domain translations (the Psalm superscriptions are not numbered verses in the CUV or the WEB). Those verses were translated by this site with AI (Claude), not taken from the WEB.

57:0
לַמְנַצֵּ֣חַ אַל־תַּ֭שְׁחֵת לְדָוִ֣ד מִכְתָּ֑ם בְּבׇרְח֥וֹ מִפְּנֵי־שָׁ֝א֗וּל בַּמְּעָרָֽה׃
εἰς τὸ τέλος μὴ διαφθείρῃς τῷ Δαυιδ εἰς στηλογραφίαν ἐν τῷ αὐτὸν ἀποδιδράσκειν ἀπὸ προσώπου Σαουλ εἰς τὸ σπήλαιον
In finem, ne disperdas. David in tituli inscriptionem, cum fugeret a facie Saul in speluncam.
ወተወከልኩ ፡ በጽላሎተ ፡ ክንፊከ ፤ እስከ ፡ ተኀልፍ ፡ ኀጢአት ።
For the Chief Musician; set to “Do Not Destroy.” A miktam by David, when he fled from Saul in the cave.
57:1
חׇנֵּ֤נִי אֱלֹהִ֨ים׀ חׇנֵּ֗נִי כִּ֥י בְךָ֮ חָסָ֢יָה נַ֫פְשִׁ֥י וּבְצֵֽל־כְּנָפֶ֥יךָ אֶחְסֶ֑ה עַ֝֗ד יַעֲבֹ֥ר הַוּֽוֹת׃
ἐλέησόν με ὁ θεός ἐλέησόν με ὅτι ἐπὶ σοὶ πέποιθεν ἡ ψυχή μου καὶ ἐν τῇ σκιᾷ τῶν πτερύγων σου ἐλπιῶ ἕως οὗ παρέλθῃ ἡ ἀνομία
Miserere mei, Deus, miserere mei, quoniam in te confidit anima mea. Et in umbra alarum tuarum sperabo, donec transeat iniquitas.
እጸርኅ ፡ ኀበ ፡ እግዚአብሔር ፡ ልዑል ፤ ኀበ ፡ እግዚአብሔር ፡ ዘረድአኒ ።
Be merciful to me, God, be merciful to me, for my soul takes refuge in you. Yes, in the shadow of your wings, I will take refuge, until disaster has passed.
57:2
אֶ֭קְרָא לֵאלֹהִ֣ים עֶלְי֑וֹן לָ֝אֵ֗ל גֹּמֵ֥ר עָלָֽי׃
κεκράξομαι πρὸς τὸν θεὸν τὸν ὕψιστον τὸν θεὸν τὸν εὐεργετήσαντά με
Clamabo ad Deum altissimum, Deum qui benefecit mihi.
ፈነወ ፡ እምሰማይ ፡ ወአድኀነኒ ፡ ወወሀቦሙ ፡ ኀሳረ ፡ ለእለ ፡ ኬዱኒ ፤
I cry out to God Most High, to God who accomplishes my requests for me.
57:3
יִשְׁלַ֤ח מִשָּׁמַ֨יִם׀ וְֽיוֹשִׁיעֵ֗נִי חֵרֵ֣ף שֹׁאֲפִ֣י סֶ֑לָה יִשְׁלַ֥ח אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים חַסְדּ֥וֹ וַאֲמִתּֽוֹ׃
ἐξαπέστειλεν ἐξ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ἔσωσέν με ἔδωκεν εἰς ὄνειδος τοὺς καταπατοῦντάς με διάψαλμα ἐξαπέστειλεν ὁ θεὸς τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν ἀλήθειαν αὐτοῦ
Misit de caelo, et liberavit me ; dedit in opprobrium conculcantes me. Misit Deus misericordiam suam et veritatem suam,
ገነወ ፡ እግዚአብሔር ፡ ሣህሎ ፡ ወጽድቆ ። ወአድኀና ፡ ለነፍስየ ፡ እምእከለ ፡ አናብስት ፡ ወኖምኩ ፡ ድንጉፅየ ፤
He will send from heaven, and save me, he rebukes the one who is pursuing me. Selah. God will send out his loving kindness and his truth.
57:4
נַפְשִׁ֤י׀ בְּת֥וֹךְ לְבָאִם֮ אֶשְׁכְּבָ֢ה לֹ֫הֲטִ֥ים בְּֽנֵי־אָדָ֗ם שִׁ֭נֵּיהֶם חֲנִ֣ית וְחִצִּ֑ים וּ֝לְשׁוֹנָ֗ם חֶ֣רֶב חַדָּֽה׃
καὶ ἐρρύσατο τὴν ψυχήν μου ἐκ μέσου σκύμνων ἐκοιμήθην τεταραγμένος υἱοὶ ἀνθρώπων οἱ ὀδόντες αὐτῶν ὅπλον καὶ βέλη καὶ ἡ γλῶσσα αὐτῶν μάχαιρα ὀξεῖα
et eripuit animam meam de medio catulorum leonum. Dormivi conturbatus. Filii hominum dentes eorum arma et sagittae, et lingua eorum gladius acutus.
ደቂቀ ፡ እጓለ ፡ እምሕያው ፡ ስነኒሆሙ ፡ ሐጽ ፡ ወኲናት ፡ ወልሳኖሙኒ ፡ በሊኅ ፡ መጥባሕት ።
My soul is among lions. I lie among those who are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
57:5
ר֣וּמָה עַל־הַשָּׁמַ֣יִם אֱלֹהִ֑ים עַ֖ל כׇּל־הָאָ֣רֶץ כְּבוֹדֶֽךָ׃
ὑψώθητι ἐπὶ τοὺς οὐρανούς ὁ θεός καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ἡ δόξα σου
Exaltare super caelos, Deus, et in omnem terram gloria tua.
ተለዐለ ፡ እግዚአብሔር ፡ መልዕልተ ፡ ሰማያት ፤ ወበኵሉ ፡ ምድር ፡ ስብሐቲሁ ።
Be exalted, God, above the heavens! Let your glory be above all the earth!
57:6
רֶ֤שֶׁת׀ הֵכִ֣ינוּ לִפְעָמַי֮ כָּפַ֢ף נַ֫פְשִׁ֥י כָּר֣וּ לְפָנַ֣י שִׁיחָ֑ה נָפְל֖וּ בְתוֹכָ֣הּ סֶֽלָה׃
παγίδα ἡτοίμασαν τοῖς ποσίν μου καὶ κατέκαμψαν τὴν ψυχήν μου ὤρυξαν πρὸ προσώπου μου βόθρον καὶ ἐνέπεσαν εἰς αὐτόν διάψαλμα
Laqueum paraverunt pedibus meis, et incurvaverunt animam meam. Foderunt ante faciem meam foveam, et inciderunt in eam.
መሥገርተ ፡ አስተዳለዉ ፡ ለእገርየ ፡ ወቀጽዕዋ ፡ ለነፍስየ ፤
They have prepared a net for my steps. My soul is bowed down. They dig a pit before me. They fall into the middle of it themselves. Selah.
57:7
נָ֘כ֤וֹן לִבִּ֣י אֱ֭לֹהִים נָכ֣וֹן לִבִּ֑י אָ֝שִׁ֗ירָה וַאֲזַמֵּֽרָה׃
ἑτοίμη ἡ καρδία μου ὁ θεός ἑτοίμη ἡ καρδία μου ᾄσομαι καὶ ψαλῶ
Paratum cor meum, Deus, paratum cor meum ; cantabo, et psalmum dicam.
ከሩዩ ፡ ግበ ፡ ቅድሜየ ፡ ወወድቁ ፡ ውስቴቱ ።
My heart is steadfast, God. My heart is steadfast. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises.
57:8
ע֤וּרָה כְבוֹדִ֗י ע֭וּרָֽה הַנֵּ֥בֶל וְכִנּ֗וֹר אָעִ֥ירָה שָּֽׁחַר׃
ἐξεγέρθητι ἡ δόξα μου ἐξεγέρθητι ψαλτήριον καὶ κιθάρα ἐξεγερθήσομαι ὄρθρου
Exsurge, gloria mea ; exsurge, psalterium et cithara : exsurgam diluculo.
ጥቡዕ ፡ ልብየ ፡ እግዚኦ ፡ ጥቡዕ ፡ ልብየ ፤ እሴብሕ ፡ ወእዜምር ።
Wake up, my glory! Wake up, lute and harp! I will wake up the dawn.
57:9
אוֹדְךָ֖ בָעַמִּ֥ים׀אֲדֹנָ֑י אֲ֝זַמֶּרְךָ֗ בַּלְאֻמִּֽים׃
ἐξομολογήσομαί σοι ἐν λαοῖς κύριε ψαλῶ σοι ἐν ἔθνεσιν
Confitebor tibi in populis, Domine, et psalmum dicam tibi in gentibus :
ወይትንሣእ ፡ ክብርየ ፤ ወይትንሣእ ፡ በመዝሙር ፡ ወበመሰንቆ ፤ ወእትንሣእ ፡ በጽባሕ ።
I will give thanks to you, Lord, among the peoples. I will sing praises to you among the nations.
57:10
כִּֽי־גָדֹ֣ל עַד־שָׁמַ֣יִם חַסְדֶּ֑ךָ וְֽעַד־שְׁחָקִ֥ים אֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃
ὅτι ἐμεγαλύνθη ἕως τῶν οὐρανῶν τὸ ἔλεός σου καὶ ἕως τῶν νεφελῶν ἡ ἀλήθειά σου
quoniam magnificata est usque ad caelos misericordia tua, et usque ad nubes veritas tua.
እገኒ ፡ ለከ ፡ በውስተ ፡ አሕዛብ ፡ እግዚኦ ፤ ወእዜምር ፡ ለከ ፡ በውስተ ፡ ሕዝብ ።
For your great loving kindness reaches to the heavens, and your truth to the skies.
57:11
ר֣וּמָה עַל־שָׁמַ֣יִם אֱלֹהִ֑ים עַ֖ל כׇּל־הָאָ֣רֶץ כְּבוֹדֶֽךָ׃ {פ}
ὑψώθητι ἐπὶ τοὺς οὐρανούς ὁ θεός καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ἡ δόξα σου
Exaltare super caelos, Deus, et super omnem terram gloria tua.
እስመ ፡ ዐብየት ፡ እስከ ፡ ሰማያት ፡ ምሕረትከ ፤ ወእስከ ፡ ደመናት ፡ ጽድቅከ ። ተለዐለ ፡ እግዚአብሔር ፡ መልዕልተ ፡ ሰማያት ፤ ወበኵሉ ፡ ምድር ፡ ስብሓቲሁ ።
Be exalted, God, above the heavens. Let your glory be over all the earth.
