Psalm 54 :: New King James Version (NKJV)

Answered Prayer for Deliverance from Adversaries
Psa 54:1To the Chief Musician. With stringed instruments.[fn] A Contemplation[fn] of David when the Ziphites went and said to Saul, “Is David not hiding with us?”

Save me, O God, by Your name,
And vindicate me by Your strength.
Psa 54:2Hear my prayer, O God;
Give ear to the words of my mouth.
Psa 54:3For strangers have risen up against me,
And oppressors have sought after my life;
They have not set God before them. Selah
Psa 54:4Behold, God is my helper;
The Lord is with those who uphold my life.
Psa 54:5He will repay my enemies for their evil.
Cut them off in Your truth.
Psa 54:6I will freely sacrifice to You;
I will praise Your name, O LORD, for it is good.
Psa 54:7For He has delivered me out of all trouble;
And my eye has seen its desire upon my enemies.
