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?”


Save me, O God, by your name;
by your power prove my vindication.
hear, God, this prayer I proclaim;
pay attention to my contemplation.

​Strangers seek nothing but strife,
as my enemies seek all-out war, then;
violent men seek out my life;
but not one has set my God before them.
Selah [Interlude]

God is my help and my aid;
​​and the LORD is the one to uphold me.
Let all my foes be repaid,
and destroy them like you've always told me.

​Freely I offer to you;
in your good name, O LORD, will I glory.
Freed from the troubles I knew,
I can stare down my foes set before me.
