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