The Book of Psalms

Unto the end. In verses, the understanding of David,

when the Ziphites had arrived and they said to Saul, “Has not David been hidden with us?”

Save me, O God, by your name, and judge me in your virtue.

O God, listen to my prayer. Pay attention to the words of my mouth.

For strangers have risen up against me, and the strong have sought my soul. And they have not set God before their eyes.

For behold, God is my helper, and the Lord is the protector of my soul.

Turn back the evils upon my adversaries, and ruin them by your truth.

I will freely sacrifice to you, and I will confess your name, O God, because it is good.

For you have quickly rescued me from all tribulation, and my eye has looked down upon my enemies.

Save me, God, by your name. Vindicate me in your might.

Hear my prayer, God. Listen to the words of my mouth.

For strangers have risen up against me. Violent men have sought after my soul. They haven’t set God before them. Selah.

Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is the one who sustains my soul.

He will repay the evil to my enemies. Destroy them in your truth.

With a free will offering, I will sacrifice to you. I will give thanks to your name, LORD, for it is good.

For he has delivered me out of all trouble. My eye has seen triumph over my enemies.
