Psalms 54

Thomson(i) 1 For the conclusion. Among the Hymns on understanding. By David, when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, Behold is not David hid among us. Save me, God, by thy name; and judge me by thy power. 2 God, hearken to my prayer. Give ear to the words of my mouth. 3 For strangers have risen up against me; and men of power have sought my life. They have not set God before them. 4 Behold God is my helper. The Lord is the protector of my life. 5 He will turn these evils on mine enemies. Destroy thou them in thy truth. 6 With free will offerings I will sacrifice to thee: I will praise thy name, Lord; for it is good: 7 because thou hast delivered me from all affliction; and among mine enemies mine eye hath looked on.
