Psalms 54
|
The Lord Upholds My Life
To the choirmaster: with (a)stringed instruments. A Maskil[a] of David, (b)when the Ziphites went and told Saul, "Is not David hiding among us?"
1 O God, save me by your (c)name,
and vindicate me by your might.
2 O God, (d)hear my prayer;
give ear to the words of my mouth.
3 (e)For (f)strangers[b] have risen against me;
ruthless men (g)seek my life;
they do not set God before themselves. Selah
4 Behold, (h)God is my helper;
the Lord is the upholder of my life.
5 He will return the evil to my enemies;
in your (i)faithfulness (j)put an end to them.
6 With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to you;
I will give thanks to your name, O Lord, (k)for it is good.
7 For he has delivered me from every trouble,
and my eye has (l)looked in triumph on my enemies.
