Psalms 54

1 [For the Chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A contemplation by David, when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, "Isn't David hiding himself among us?"] Save me, God, by your name. Vindicate me in your might.

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, God. Listen to the words of my mouth.

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

3 For strangers have risen up against me. Violent men have sought after my soul. They haven't 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 Look, God is my helper. YHWH is the one who sustains my soul.

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

5 He will repay the evil to my enemies. Destroy them in your truth.

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

6 With a free will offering, I will sacrifice to you. I will give thanks to your name, YHWH, 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. My eye has seen triumph over my enemies.

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