PSALM
54
|
54:1 For the Leader; with string-music. Maschil of David: 54:2 when the Ziphites came and said to Saul: 'Doth not David hide himself with us?' 54:3 O God, save me by Thy name, and right me by Thy might. 54:4 O God, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth. 54:5 For strangers are risen up against me, and violent men have sought after my soul; they have not set God before them. Selah 54:6 Behold, God is my helper; the L-rd is for me as the upholder of my soul. 54:7 He will requite the evil unto them that lie in wait for me; destroy Thou them in Thy truth. 54:8 With a freewill-offering will I sacrifice unto Thee; I will give thanks unto Thy name, O the Lord, for it is good. 54:9 For He hath delivered me out of all trouble; and mine eye hath gazed upon mine enemies. |
