Turn, Lord, and deliver me; save me because of your unfailing love.

Psalm 7

A shiggaion of David, which he sang to the Lord concerning Cush, a Benjamite.

Lord my God, I take refuge in you; save and deliver me from all who pursue me,

My shield is God Most High, who saves the upright in heart.

Show me the wonders of your great love, you who save by your right hand those who take refuge in you from their foes.

By your hand save me from such people, Lord, from those of this world whose reward is in this life. May what you have stored up for the wicked fill their bellies; may their children gorge themselves on it, and may there be leftovers for their little ones.

I called to the Lord, who is worthy of praise, and I have been saved from my enemies.

You save the humble but bring low those whose eyes are haughty.

They cried for help, but there was no one to save them— to the Lord, but he did not answer.

who saves me from my enemies. You exalted me above my foes; from a violent man you rescued me.

To you they cried out and were saved; in you they trusted and were not put to shame.

Rescue me from the mouth of the lions; save me from the horns of the wild oxen.

Save your people and bless your inheritance; be their shepherd and carry them forever.

Turn your ear to me, come quickly to my rescue; be my rock of refuge, a strong fortress to save me.

Let your face shine on your servant; save me in your unfailing love.

No king is saved by the size of his army; no warrior escapes by his great strength.

A horse is a vain hope for deliverance; despite all its great strength it cannot save.

This poor man called, and the Lord heard him; he saved him out of all his troubles.

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.

The Lord helps them and delivers them; he delivers them from the wicked and saves them, because they take refuge in him.

Save me from all my transgressions; do not make me the scorn of fools.

Be pleased to save me, Lord; come quickly, Lord, to help me.

Psalm 54

For the director of music. With stringed instruments. A maskil of David. When the Ziphites had gone to Saul and said, “Is not David hiding among us?”

Save me, O God, by your name; vindicate me by your might.

As for me, I call to God, and the Lord saves me.

He sends from heaven and saves me, rebuking those who hotly pursue me— God sends forth his love and his faithfulness.

Deliver me from evildoers and save me from those who are after my blood.
