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

For the chief musician; on stringed instruments. A maschil of David; when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, “Does David not hide himself with us?” Save me, God, by your name, and judge me in your might.

2 Deus exaudi orationem meam auribus percipe verba oris mei

Hear my prayer, 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 have risen up against me, and pitiless men have sought after my life; they have not set God before them. (Selah)

4 ecce enim Deus adiuvat me Dominus susceptor animae meae

See, God is my helper; the Lord is the one who upholds me.

5 avertet mala inimicis meis in veritate tua disperde illos

He will repay my enemies with evil; in your faithfulness, destroy them!

6 voluntarie sacrificabo tibi confitebor nomini tuo Domine quoniam bonum

I will sacrifice to you with a freewill offering; I will give thanks to your name, Yahweh, for it is good.

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

For he has rescued me from every trouble; my eye has looked in triumph on my enemies.
