Psalm 54 - New International Version (Anglicised)

Psalm 54

For the director of music. With stringed instruments. A maskil of David. When the Ziphites had gone to Saul and said, ‘Is not David hiding among us?’

¹ Save me, O God, by your name; vindicate me by your might.

² Hear my prayer, O God; listen to the words of my mouth.

³ Arrogant foes are attacking me; ruthless people are trying to kill me – people without regard for God.

⁴ Surely God is my help; the Lord is the one who sustains me.

⁵ Let evil recoil on those who slander me; in your faithfulness destroy them.

⁶ I will sacrifice a freewill offering to you; I will praise your name, Lord, for it is good.

⁷ You have delivered me from all my troubles, and my eyes have looked in triumph on my foes.
