Psalm 54 :: Amplified Bible (AMP)

Prayer for Defense against Enemies.

Psa 54:1

To the Chief Musician; with stringed instruments. A skillful song, or a didactic or reflective poem, of David, when the Ziphites went and told Saul, “David is hiding among us.”

Save me, O God, by Your name;

And vindicate me by Your [wondrous] power.

Psa 54:2

Hear my prayer, O God;

Listen to the words of my mouth.

Psa 54:3

For strangers have risen against me

And violent men have sought my life;

They have not set God before them. Selah.

Psa 54:4

Behold, God is my helper and ally;

The Lord is the sustainer of my soul [my upholder].

Psa 54:5

He will pay back the evil to my enemies;

In Your faithfulness destroy them.

Psa 54:6

With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to You;

I will give thanks and praise Your name, O LORD, for it is good.

Psa 54:7

For He has rescued me from every trouble,

And my eye has looked with satisfaction (triumph) on my enemies.
