Justify me by your power

(1 Samuel 23:7-29)
1
God, by your power save me from my enemies, and show people that I have not done anything that is wrong!
2
God, listen to my prayer; listen to what I say to you
3
because strangers are trying to attack me; proud men are wanting to kill me, men who have no respect for you.
4
But God is the one who helps me; Yahweh defends me from my enemies.
5
He will cause the evil things that they want to do to me to happen to them instead; because you faithfully do what you have promised to me, destroy them.
6
Yahweh, I will gladly give an offering to you because I want to, and I will thank you, for you are good to me;
7
you have rescued me from all my troubles, and I have seen that you have defeated my enemies.

Justify me by your power

(1 Samuel 23:7-29)
1
Save me, God, by your name. Vindicate me in your might.
2
Hear my prayer, God. Listen to the words of my mouth.
3
For strangers have risen up against me. Violent men have sought after my soul. They haven’t set God before them. Selah.
4
Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is the one who sustains my soul.
5
He will repay the evil to my enemies. Destroy them in your truth.
6
With a free will offering, I will sacrifice to you. I will give thanks to your name, LORD, for it is good.
7
For he has delivered me out of all trouble. My eye has seen triumph over my enemies.
