1For the music director, to be accompanied by stringed instruments; a well-written song by David. It was written when the Ziphites came and informed Saul: "David is hiding with us." O God, deliver me by your name! Vindicate me by your power! | 1God, save me by your name, and vindicate me by your might! |
2O God, listen to my prayer! Pay attention to what I say! | 2God, hear my prayer; listen to the words from my mouth. |
3For foreigners attack me; ruthless men, who do not respect God, seek my life. (Selah) | 3For strangers rise up against me, and violent men intend to kill me. They do not let God guide them. Selah |
4Look, God is my deliverer! The Lord is among those who support me. | 4God is my helper; the Lord is the sustainer of my life. |
5May those who wait to ambush me be repaid for their evil! As a demonstration of your faithfulness, destroy them! | 5He will repay my adversaries for their evil. Because of your faithfulness, annihilate them. |
6With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to you! I will give thanks to your name, O LORD, for it is good! | 6I will sacrifice a freewill offering to you. I will praise your name, LORD, because it is good. |
7Surely he rescues me from all trouble, and I triumph over my enemies. | 7For he has rescued me from every trouble, and my eye has looked down on my enemies. |
