Psalms, Chapter 54

  
1. Save me, O God, by thy name, And judge me in thy might.
  
2. Hear my prayer, O God; Give ear to the words of my mouth.
  
3. For strangers are risen up against me, And violent men have sought after my soul: They have not set God before them. [Selah]
  
4. Behold, God is my helper: The Lord is of them that uphold my soul.
  
5. He will requite the evil unto mine enemies: Destroy thou them in thy truth.
  
6. With a freewill-offering will I sacrifice unto thee: I will give thanks unto thy name, O Jehovah, for it is good.
  
7. For he hath delivered me out of all trouble; And mine eye hath seen [my desire] upon mine enemies.
