< 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.
εἰς τὸ τέλος ἐν ὕμνοις συνέσεως τῷ Δαυιδ ἐν τῷ ἐλθεῖν τοὺς Ζιφαίους καὶ εἰπεῖν τῷ σαουλ οὐκ ἰδοὺ Δαυιδ κέκρυπται παρ’ ἡμῖν ὁ θεός ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί σου σῶσόν με καὶ ἐν τῇ δυνάμει σου κρῖνόν με
2 O God, heare my prayer: hearken vnto the wordes of my mouth.
ὁ θεός εἰσάκουσον τῆς προσευχῆς μου ἐνώτισαι τὰ ῥήματα τοῦ στόματός μου
3 For strangers are risen vp against me, and tyrants seeke my soule: they haue not set God before them. (Selah)
ὅτι ἀλλότριοι ἐπανέστησαν ἐπ’ ἐμέ καὶ κραταιοὶ ἐζήτησαν τὴν ψυχήν μου οὐ προέθεντο τὸν θεὸν ἐνώπιον αὐτῶν διάψαλμα
4 Beholde, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that vpholde my soule.
ἰδοὺ γὰρ ὁ θεὸς βοηθεῖ μοι καὶ ὁ κύριος ἀντιλήμπτωρ τῆς ψυχῆς μου
5 He shall rewarde euill vnto mine enemies: Oh cut them off in thy trueth!
ἀποστρέψει τὰ κακὰ τοῖς ἐχθροῖς μου ἐν τῇ ἀληθείᾳ σου ἐξολέθρευσον αὐτούς
6 Then I will sacrifice freely vnto thee: I wil praise thy Name, O Lord, because it is good.
ἑκουσίως θύσω σοι ἐξομολογήσομαι τῷ ὀνόματί σου κύριε ὅτι ἀγαθόν
7 For he hath deliuered me out of al trouble, and mine eye hath seene my desire vpon mine enemies.
ὅτι ἐκ πάσης θλίψεως ἐρρύσω με καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἐχθροῖς μου ἐπεῖδεν ὁ ὀφθαλμός μου
