Psalm 54
A Prayer for
Protection from Enemies |
To the chief Musician on
Neg'inoth, Maschil, A Psalm of David, when the Ziphim
came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us? 1.1--0.1 ; 0.23 ; 9.23 ; 26.1 |
|
1 |
Save me, O God, by thy name,
|
and judge me by thy
strength. |
|
|
2 |
Hear my prayer, O God;
|
give ear to the words of my mouth.
|
|
|
3 |
For strangers are risen up against
me,
|
and oppressors seek after my soul: |
they have not set God before them.
Selah. |
|
|
4 |
Behold, God is mine helper:
|
the Lord is with them that uphold my
soul. |
|
|
5 |
He shall reward evil unto mine
enemies:
|
cut them off in thy truth.
|
|
|
6 |
I will freely sacrifice unto thee:
|
I will praise thy name, O LORD; |
for it is good. |
|
|
7 |
For he hath delivered me out of all
trouble:
|
and mine eye hath seen his desire upon mine
enemies. |
