< Psalmorum 54 >
1 in finem in carminibus intellectus David cum venissent Ziphei et dixissent ad Saul nonne David absconditus est apud nos Deus in nomine tuo salvum me fac et in virtute tua iudica me
Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me in thy might.
2 Deus exaudi orationem meam auribus percipe verba oris mei
Hear my prayer, O God. Give ear to the words of my mouth.
3 quoniam alieni insurrexerunt adversum me et fortes quaesierunt animam meam non proposuerunt Deum ante conspectum suum diapsalma
For strangers are risen up against me, and violent men have sought after my soul. They have not set God before them. (Selah)
4 ecce enim Deus adiuvat me Dominus susceptor animae meae
Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is of those who uphold my soul.
5 avertet mala inimicis meis in veritate tua disperde illos
He will requite the evil to my enemies. Destroy thou them in thy truth.
6 voluntarie sacrificabo tibi confitebor nomini tuo Domine quoniam bonum
With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to thee. I will give thanks to thy name, O Jehovah, for it is good.
7 quoniam ex omni tribulatione eripuisti me et super inimicos meos despexit oculus meus
For he has delivered me out of all trouble, and my eye has seen it upon my enemies.
