Salmos 54:1-6

1 Al Vencedor: en Neginot: Masquil de David, cuando vinieron los zifeos y dijeron a Saúl: ¿No está David escondido en nuestra tierra? Oh Dios, sálvame en tu Nombre, y con tu valentía defiéndeme.

2 Oh Dios, oye mi oración; escucha las razones de mi boca.

3 Porque extraños se han levantado contra mí, y fuertes buscan mi alma; no han puesto a Dios delante de sí. (Selah.)

4 He aquí, Dios es el que me ayuda; el Señor es con los que sustentan mi alma.

5 El volverá el mal a mis enemigos; córtalos por tu verdad.

6 Voluntariamente sacrificaré a ti; alabaré tu Nombre, oh SEÑOR, porque es bueno.

Salmos 54:1-6 Meaning and Commentary

To the chief Musician on Neginoth, Maschil, [A Psalm] of David, when the Ziphims came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us? Of the word "neginoth," See Gill on "Ps 4:1," title; and of "maschil," See Gill on "Ps 32:1," title. The occasion of writing this psalm were the discoveries the Ziphims or Ziphites made to Saul of David being in their neighbourhood; which they did twice, as appears from 1 Samuel 23:14. Which of these gave occasion to the psalm is not certain; it is very likely that it was composed after both had been made. These Ziphims were the inhabitants of a city called Ziph, which was in the tribe of Judah, Joshua 15:55, near to which was a wilderness, which had its name from the city in which David was when they came to Saul with this news of him.
