A special psalm that David wrote when the people of Ziph went to Saul and said, “David is hiding here with us.”)Trusting God in Times of Troubleand prove that I am right. 2Listen to my prayer and hear what I say. 3Cruel strangers have attacked and want me dead. Not one of them cares about you. 4You will help me, Lord God, and keep me from falling; 5you will punish my enemies for their evil deeds. Be my faithful friend and destroy them. 6I will bring a gift and offer a sacrifice to you, Lord. I will praise your name because you are good. 7You have rescued me from all my troubles, and my own eyes have seen my enemies fall.
