Psalms 54

1 [To the chief Musician on Neginoth, Maschil, {A Psalm} of David, when the Ziphims came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us?] Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me by thy strength. {chief...: or, overseer} {Maschil: or, of instruction} 2 Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth. 3 For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. Selah. 4 Behold, God {is} mine helper: the Lord {is} with them that uphold my soul. 5 He shall reward evil unto mine enemies: cut them off in thy truth. {mine...: Heb. those that observe me} 6 I will freely sacrifice unto thee: I will praise thy name, O LORD; for {it is} good. 7 For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: and mine eye hath seen {his desire} upon mine enemies.
