World English Bible

Psalm 54

1 Save me, God, by your name. Vindicate me in your might.

2 Hear my prayer, God. Listen to the words of my mouth.

3 For strangers have risen up against me. Violent men have sought after my soul. They haven’t set God before them. Selah.

4 Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is the one who sustains my soul.

5 He will repay the evil to my enemies. Destroy them in your truth.

6 With a free will offering, I will sacrifice to you. I will give thanks to your name, Yahweh, for it is good.

7 For he has delivered me out of all trouble. My eye has seen triumph over my enemies.
