Psalm 54:1

Psalms of David in Metre 1650 (Scottish Psalter)

Save me, O God, by thy great name, and judge me by thy strength:

See the chapter Copy

JEHOVAH hear thee in the day when trouble he doth send: And let the name of Jacob's God thee from all ill defend.

For thy name's glory help us, Lord, who hast our Saviour been: Deliver us; for thy name's sake, O purge away our sin.

O Lord, according to thy name, through all the earth's thy praise; And thy right hand, O Lord, is full of righteousness always.

Judge me, O Lord, for I have walk'd in mine integrity: I trusted also in the Lord; slide therefore shall not I.

The king's strength also judgment loves; thou settlest equity: Just judgment thou dost execute in Jacob righteously.
