Psalms 54

1 To him that excelleth on Neginoth. A Psalme of David, to give instruction. When the Ziphims came and said unto Saul, Is not David hid among us? Save mee, O God, by thy Name, and by thy power iudge me.

Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me by thy strength.

2 O God, heare my prayer: hearken vnto the wordes of my mouth.

Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.

3 For strangers are risen vp against me, and tyrants seeke my soule: they haue not set God before them. (Selah)

For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. (Selah)

4 Beholde, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that vpholde my soule.

Behold, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that uphold my soul.

5 He shall rewarde euill vnto mine enemies: Oh cut them off in thy trueth!

He shall reward evil unto mine enemies: cut them off in thy truth.

6 Then I will sacrifice freely vnto thee: I wil praise thy Name, O Lord, because it is good.

I will freely sacrifice unto thee: I will praise thy name, O Yhwh; for it is good.

7 For he hath deliuered me out of al trouble, and mine eye hath seene my desire vpon mine enemies.

For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: and mine eye hath seen his desire upon mine enemies.
