Probably bad battery if it is OEM and you have 57,000 miles on car. Could also be bad starter. the clicking sounds like a solenoid not working properly.
You are off warranty unless it is a certified car. If certified get it to a dealer. If not, go to repair shop of your choice.

Let me modify my stooopid statement-that reading is about normal for that battery at rest....
Are the connectors tight and clean?
you may need to remove them and clean them to get proper current flow.
