祈求上帝的拯救

西弗人去告诉扫罗:“大卫藏在我们那里”,那时大卫作了这首训诲诗,交给乐长,用弦乐器。

54 上帝啊,
求你凭你的名拯救我!
求你用你的大能为我申冤!
上帝啊,求你垂听我的祷告,
留心我口中的话。
因为傲慢的人起来攻击我,
目无上帝的暴徒正寻索我的性命。(细拉)
看啊,上帝帮助我,主扶持我,
祂必使我的仇敌自作自受。
信实的上帝啊,
求你毁灭他们。
耶和华啊,
我甘心乐意献上祭物,
我要赞美你的名,
因为你的名是美善的。
你拯救我脱离一切艰难,
让我傲视仇敌。

The Lord Upholds My Life

To the choirmaster: with (A)stringed instruments. A Maskil[a] of David, (B)when the Ziphites went and told Saul, “Is not David hiding among us?”

54 O God, save me by your (C)name,
    and vindicate me by your might.
O God, (D)hear my prayer;
    give ear to the words of my mouth.

(E)For (F)strangers[b] have risen against me;
    ruthless men (G)seek my life;
    they do not set God before themselves. Selah

Behold, (H)God is my helper;
    the Lord is the upholder of my life.
He will return the evil to my enemies;
    in your (I)faithfulness (J)put an end to them.

With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to you;
    I will give thanks to your name, O Lord, (K)for it is good.
For he has delivered me from every trouble,
    and my eye has (L)looked in triumph on my enemies.
