1God, save me by your name, and vindicate me by your might! | 1For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. A Maskil of David. When the Ziphites went to Saul and said, “Is David not hiding among us?” Save me, O God, by Your name, and vindicate me by Your might! |
2God, hear my prayer; listen to the words from my mouth. | 2Hear my prayer, O God; listen to the words of my mouth. |
3For strangers rise up against me, and violent men intend to kill me. They do not let God guide them. Selah | 3For strangers rise up against me, and ruthless men seek my life—men with no regard for God. Selah |
4God is my helper; the Lord is the sustainer of my life. | 4Surely God is my helper; the Lord is the sustainer of my soul. |
5He will repay my adversaries for their evil. Because of your faithfulness, annihilate them. | 5He will reward my enemies with evil. In Your faithfulness, destroy them. |
6I will sacrifice a freewill offering to you. I will praise your name, LORD, because it is good. | 6Freely I will sacrifice to You; I will praise Your name, O LORD, for it is good. |
7For he has rescued me from every trouble, and my eye has looked down on my enemies. | 7For He has delivered me from every trouble, and my eyes have stared down my foes. |
