Psalms 54

1 Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me in thy might.

In finem, In carminibus intellectus David, Cum venissent Ziphæi, et dixissent ad Saul: Nonne David absconditus est apud nos? Deus in nomine tuo salvum me fac: et in virtute tua iudica me.

2 Hear my prayer, O God. Give ear to the words of my mouth.

Deus exaudi orationem meam: auribus percipe verba oris mei.

3 For strangers are risen up against me, and violent men have sought after my soul. They have not set God before them. (Selah)

Quoniam alieni insurrexerunt adversum me, et fortes quæsierunt animam meam: et non proposuerunt Deum ante conspectum suum.

4 Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is of those who uphold my soul.

Ecce enim Deus adiuvat me: et Dominus susceptor est animæ meæ.

5 He will requite the evil to my enemies. Destroy thou them in thy truth.

Averte mala inimicis meis: et in veritate tua disperde illos.

6 With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to thee. I will give thanks to thy name, O Jehovah, for it is good.

Voluntarie sacrificabo tibi, et confitebor nomini tuo Domine: quoniam bonum est:

7 For he has delivered me out of all trouble, and my eye has seen it upon my enemies.

Quoniam ex omni tribulatione eripuisti me: et super inimicos meos despexit oculus meus.
