Psalm 54 :: Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

Psa 54:1To the Overseer with stringed instruments. -- An instruction, by David, in the coming in of the Ziphim, and they say to Saul, 'Is not David hiding himself with us?' O God, by Thy name save me, and by Thy might judge me.
Psa 54:2O God, hear my prayer, Give ear to the sayings of my mouth,
Psa 54:3For strangers have risen up against me And terrible ones have sought my soul, They have not set God before them. Selah.
Psa 54:4Lo, God is a helper to me, The Lord is with those supporting my soul,
Psa 54:5Turn back doth the evil thing to mine enemies, In Thy truth cut them off.
Psa 54:6With a free will-offering I sacrifice to Thee, I thank Thy name, O Jehovah, for it is good,
Psa 54:7For, from all adversity He delivered me, And on mine enemies hath mine eye looked!
