Psalms 54

1 Save me, O Elohim, by thy name, and judge me by thy strength.

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 judica me.

2 Hear my prayer, O Elohim; 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 oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set Elohim before them. (Selah)

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

4 Behold, Elohim is mine helper: YHWH is with them that uphold my soul.

Ecce enim Deus adjuvat me, et Dominus susceptor est animæ meæ.

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

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

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

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

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

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