My God, save me from the power of the wicked and from the hold of evil and cruel people.
After Absalom’s servants left, Jonathan and Ahimaaz climbed out of the well and went to tell King David. They said, “Hurry, cross over the river! Ahithophel has said these things against you!”
Lord, rise up, face the enemy, and throw them down. Save me from the wicked with your sword.
God, defend me. Argue my case against those who don’t follow you. Save me from liars and those who do evil.
