Psalm 54

King James Version

To the chief Musician on Neginoth, Maschil, A Psalm of David, when the Ziphims came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us?

1SaveH3467 me, O GodH430, by thy nameH8034, and judgeH1777 me by thy strengthH1369.12

2HearH8085 my prayerH8605, O GodH430; give earH238 to the wordsH561 of my mouthH6310.

3For strangersH2114 are risen upH6965 against me, and oppressorsH6184 seekH1245 after my soulH5315: they have not setH7760 GodH430 before them. SelahH5542.

4Behold, GodH430 is mine helperH5826: the LordH136 is with them that upholdH5564 my soulH5315.

5He shall rewardH7725 evilH7451 unto mine enemiesH8324: cut them offH6789 in thy truthH571.3

6I will freelyH5071 sacrificeH2076 unto thee: I will praiseH3034 thy nameH8034, O LordH3068; for it is goodH2896.

7For he hath deliveredH5337 me out of all troubleH6869: and mine eyeH5869 hath seenH7200 his desire upon mine enemiesH341.
