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

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 Deus exaudi orationem meam auribus percipe verba oris mei

O God, heare my prayer: hearken vnto the wordes 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 vp against me, and tyrants seeke my soule: they haue not set God before them. (Selah)

4 ecce enim Deus adiuvat me Dominus susceptor animae meae

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

5 avertet mala inimicis meis in veritate tua disperde illos

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

6 voluntarie sacrificabo tibi confitebor nomini tuo Domine quoniam bonum

Then I will sacrifice freely vnto thee: I wil praise thy Name, O Lord, because it is good.

7 quoniam ex omni tribulatione eripuisti me et super inimicos meos despexit oculus meus

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