Psalms54

A Plea for Protection

^1•Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me by thy strength. ^2•Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth. ^3•For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. Selah. ^4•Behold, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that uphold my soul. ^5•He shall reward evil unto mine enemies: cut them off in thy truth. ^6•I will freely sacrifice unto thee: I will praise thy name, O LORD; for it is good. ^7•For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: and mine eye hath seen his desire upon mine enemies.
