[1] To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. A Maskil of David, when the Ziphites went and told Saul, "David is in hiding among us." [2] Save me, O God, by thy name, and vindicate me by thy might. [3] Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth. [4] For insolent men have risen against me, ruthless men seek my life; they do not set God before them. [Selah] [5] Behold, God is my helper; the Lord is the upholder of my life. [6] He will requite my enemies with evil; in thy faithfulness put an end to them. [7] With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to thee; I will give thanks to thy name, O LORD, for it is good. [ (Psalms 54:8) For thou hast delivered me from every trouble, and my eye has looked in triumph on my enemies. ]
