Psalms 54

WYC

NIV

1 To victory in organs, either in psalms, the learning of David, when Ziphims came, and said to Saul, Whether David is not hid at us? God, in thy name, make thou me safe; and in thy virtue, deem thou me. (To victory, on instruments, or in songs, the teaching of David, when the Ziphims came, and said to Saul, David is hid with us! God, by the power of thy name, save thou me; and in thy strength, judge thou me.)
1 Save me, O God, by your name; vindicate me by your might.
2 God, hear thou my prayer; with ears perceive thou the words of my mouth. (God, hear thou my prayer; listen thou to the words of my mouth.)
2 Hear my prayer, O God; listen to the words of my mouth.
3 For aliens have risen against me, and strong men sought my life; and they setted not God before their sight. (For foreigners, or strangers, have risen against me, and strong men sought to take my life; and they never have a thought about God.)
3 Arrogant foes are attacking me; ruthless people are trying to kill me— people without regard for God.
4 For, lo! God helpeth me; and the Lord is the up-taker of my soul (and the Lord is my defender).
4 Surely God is my help; the Lord is the one who sustains me.
5 Turn thou away evils to mine enemies; and lose thou them in thy truth. (O Lord, turn thou back their own evil upon my enemies; and destroy thou them by thy truth.)
5 Let evil recoil on those who slander me; in your faithfulness destroy them.
6 Willfully I shall sacrifice to thee; and, Lord, I shall acknowledge to thy name, for it is good. (I shall willingly sacrifice to thee, Lord; and I shall praise thy name, 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 deliveredest me from all tribulation; and mine eye despised on mine enemies. (For thou hast rescued me from every trouble; and I have seen come to pass what I desire for my enemies/and my eyes have seen the defeat of my enemies.)
7 You have delivered me from all my troubles, and my eyes have looked in triumph on my foes.
