Psalms 54

1 To the choirmaster with stringed instruments a poem of David. When came the Ziphites and they said to Saul ¿ not [is] David hiding himself with us. O God by name your save me and by strength your you will vindicate me.

For the Leader; with string-music. Maschil of David: when the Ziphites came and said to Saul: 'Doth not David hide himself with us?' O God, save me by Thy name, and right me by Thy might.

2 O God hear prayer my give ear! to [the] words of mouth my.

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

3 For strangers - they have risen up on me and ruthless [people] they have sought life my not they have set God to before themselves (Selah)

For strangers are risen up against me, and violent men have sought after my soul; they have not set God before them. (Selah)

4 Here! God [is] a helper of me [the] Lord [is] [those who] sustain life my.

Behold, God is my helper; the Lord is for me as the upholder of my soul.

5 (May he bring back *Q(K)*) the evil to enemies my in faithfulness your destroy them.

He will requite the evil unto them that lie in wait for me; destroy Thou them in Thy truth.

6 In voluntariness I will sacrifice to you I will give thanks to name your O Yahweh for [it is] good.

With a freewill-offering will I sacrifice unto Thee; I will give thanks unto Thy name, O LORD, for it is good.

7 For from every trouble he has delivered me and on enemies my it has looked eye my.

For He hath delivered me out of all trouble; and mine eye hath gazed upon mine enemies.
