Psalm 54

1 Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me by thy might.

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

2 O God, hear my prayer; hearken to the words of my mouth.

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

3 For strangers have risen up against me, and mighty men have sought my life: they have not set God before them. Pause.

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

4 For lo! God assists me; and the Lord is the helper of my soul.

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

5 He shall return evil to mine enemies; utterly destroy them in thy truth.

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

6 I will willingly sacrifice to thee: I will give thanks to thy name, O Lord; for it is good.

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

7 For thou hast delivered me out of all affliction, and mine eye has seen my desire upon mine enemies.

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