Psalm 54
JPS Tanakh 1917
1For the Leader; with string-music. Maschil of David:2when the Ziphites came and said to Saul: ‘Doth not David hide himself with us?’

3O God, save me by Thy name,
And right me by Thy might.
4O God, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth.
5For strangers are risen up against me,
And violent men have sought after my soul;
They have not set God before them.
Selah
6Behold, God is my helper;
The Lord is for me as the upholder of my soul.
7He will requite the evil unto them that lie in wait for me;
Destroy Thou them in Thy truth.
8With a freewill-offering will I sacrifice unto Thee;
I will give thanks unto Thy name, O LORD, for it is good.
9For He hath delivered me out of all trouble;
And mine eye hath gazed upon mine enemies.
