Salmi 54
Conferenza Episcopale Italiana
Invocazione al Dio che rende giustizia
54 Al maestro del coro. Per strumenti a corda. Maskil.
Di Davide.
2 Dopo che gli Zifei vennero da Saul a dirgli: «Ecco, Davide se ne sta nascosto presso di noi».
3 Dio, per il tuo nome, salvami,
per la tua potenza rendimi giustizia.
4 Dio, ascolta la mia preghiera,
porgi l'orecchio alle parole della mia bocca;
5 poiché sono insorti contro di me gli arroganti
e i prepotenti insidiano la mia vita,
davanti a sé non pongono Dio.
6 Ecco, Dio è il mio aiuto,
il Signore mi sostiene.
7 Fà ricadere il male sui miei nemici,
nella tua fedeltà disperdili.
8 Di tutto cuore ti offrirò un sacrificio,
Signore, loderò il tuo nome perché è buono;
9 da ogni angoscia mi hai liberato
e il mio occhio ha sfidato i miei nemici.
Psalm 54
New King James Version
Answered Prayer for Deliverance from Adversaries
To the Chief Musician. With [a]stringed instruments. A [b]Contemplation of David (A)when the Ziphites went and said to Saul, “Is David not hiding with us?”
54 Save me, O God, by Your name,
And vindicate me by Your strength.
2 Hear my prayer, O God;
Give ear to the words of my mouth.
3 For strangers have risen up against me,
And oppressors have sought after my life;
They have not set God before them. Selah
4 Behold, God is my helper;
The Lord is with those who [c]uphold my life.
5 He will repay my enemies for their evil.
[d]Cut them off in Your [e]truth.
6 I will freely sacrifice to You;
I will praise Your name, O Lord, for it is good.
7 For He has delivered me out of all trouble;
(B)And my eye has seen its desire upon my enemies.

Young's Literal Translation
54 To 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.
2 O God, hear my prayer, Give ear to the sayings of my mouth,
3 For strangers have risen up against me And terrible ones have sought my soul, They have not set God before them. Selah.
4 Lo, God [is] a helper to me, The Lord [is] with those supporting my soul,
5 Turn back doth the evil thing to mine enemies, In Thy truth cut them off.
6 With a free will-offering I sacrifice to Thee, I thank Thy name, O Jehovah, for [it is] good,
7 For, from all adversity He delivered me, And on mine enemies hath mine eye looked!
