< Psalms 54 >
1 Save me, O God, by your name, and judge me by your strength.
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.
2 Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.
O God, heare my prayer: hearken vnto the wordes of my mouth.
3 For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. (Selah)
For strangers are risen vp against me, and tyrants seeke my soule: they haue not set God before them. (Selah)
4 Behold, God is my helper: the Lord is with them that uphold my soul.
Beholde, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that vpholde my soule.
5 He shall reward evil to my enemies: cut them off in your truth.
He shall rewarde euill vnto mine enemies: Oh cut them off in thy trueth!
6 I will freely sacrifice to you: I will praise your name, O LORD; for it is good.
Then I will sacrifice freely vnto thee: I wil praise thy Name, O Lord, because it is good.
7 For he has delivered me out of all trouble: and my eye has seen his desire on my enemies.
For he hath deliuered me out of al trouble, and mine eye hath seene my desire vpon mine enemies.
