Psalms 54

  1. 1

    For the music director, to be accompanied by stringed instruments; a well-written song by David. It was written when the Ziphites came and informed Saul: “David is hiding with us.” O God, deliver me by your name. Vindicate me by your power.

  2. 2

    O God, listen to my prayer. Pay attention to what I say.

  3. 3

    For foreigners attack me; ruthless men, who do not respect God, seek my life. (Selah)

  4. 4

    Look, God is my deliverer. The Lord is among those who support me.

  5. 5

    May those who wait to ambush me be repaid for their evil. As a demonstration of your faithfulness, destroy them.

  6. 6

    With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to you. I will give thanks to your name, O Lord, for it is good.

  7. 7

    Surely he rescues me from all trouble, and I triumph over my enemies.
