Psalm 54 :: Christian Standard Bible (CSB)

Prayer for Deliverance

For the choir director: with stringed instruments. A Maskil of David. When the Ziphites went and said to Saul, “Is David not hiding among us? ”

Psa 54:1

God, save me by your name,

and vindicate me by your might!

Psa 54:2

God, hear my prayer;

listen to the words from my mouth.

Psa 54:3

For strangers rise up against me,

and violent men intend to kill me.

They do not let God guide them.[fn]Selah

Psa 54:4

God is my helper;

the Lord is the sustainer of my life.[fn]

Psa 54:5

He will repay my adversaries for their evil.

Because of your faithfulness, annihilate them.

Psa 54:6

I will sacrifice a freewill offering to you.

I will praise your name, LORD,

because it is good.

Psa 54:7

For he has rescued me from every trouble,

and my eye has looked down on my enemies.
