Psalms 54

(For the music leader. Use with stringed instruments. A special psalm that David wrote when the people of Ziph went to Saul and said, "David is hiding here with us.")

Trusting God in Times of Trouble

1 Save me, God, by your power
    and prove that I am right.
2     Listen to my prayer
    and hear what I say.
3 Cruel strangers have attacked
    and want me dead.
    Not one of them cares
    about you.

4 You will help me, Lord God,
    and keep me from falling;
5     you will punish my enemies
    for their evil deeds.
Be my faithful friend
    and destroy them.

6 I will bring a gift
and offer a sacrifice
    to you, Lord.
    I will praise your name
    because you are good.
7 You have rescued me
    from all of my troubles,
    and my own eyes have seen
    my enemies fall.
