Psalms 54

ASV(i) 1 For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. Maschil of David; when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us?

Save me, O God, by thy name,
And judge me in thy might. 2 Hear my prayer, O God;
Give ear to the words of my mouth. 3 For strangers are risen up against me,
And violent men have sought after my soul:
They have not set God before them. [Selah 4 Behold, God is my helper:
The Lord is of them that uphold my soul. 5 He will requite the evil unto mine enemies:
Destroy thou them in thy truth. 6 With a freewill-offering will I sacrifice unto thee:
I will give thanks unto thy name, O Jehovah, for it is good. 7 For he hath delivered me out of all trouble;
And mine eye hath seen [my desire] upon mine enemies.
