Psalm 54
King James Version
54 Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me by thy strength.
2 Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.
3 For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. Selah.
4 Behold, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that uphold my soul.
5 He shall reward evil unto mine enemies: cut them off in thy truth.
6 I will freely sacrifice unto thee: I will praise thy name, O Lord; for it is good.
7 For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: and mine eye hath seen his desire upon mine enemies.
Psalm 54
English Standard Version
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.
2 O God, (D)hear my prayer;
give ear to the words of my mouth.
3 (E)For (F)strangers[b] have risen against me;
ruthless men (G)seek my life;
they do not set God before themselves. Selah
4 Behold, (H)God is my helper;
the Lord is the upholder of my life.
5 He will return the evil to my enemies;
in your (I)faithfulness (J)put an end to them.
6 With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to you;
I will give thanks to your name, O Lord, (K)for it is good.
7 For he has delivered me from every trouble,
and my eye has (L)looked in triumph on my enemies.

Psalmi 54
Cornilescu 1924 - Revised 2010, 2014
Psalmul 54
Către mai-marele cântăreţilor.
De cântat cu instrumente cu coarde.
O cântare a lui David. Făcută când au venit zifiţii să spună lui Saul: „Ştiţi că David şade ascuns printre noi?”
1 Scapă-mă, Dumnezeule, prin Numele Tău
şi fă-mi dreptate prin puterea Ta.
2 Ascultă-mi rugăciunea, Dumnezeule,
ia aminte la cuvintele gurii mele.
3 Căci nişte străini(A) s-au sculat împotriva mea,
nişte oameni asupritori vor să-mi ia viaţa;
ei nu se gândesc la Dumnezeu.
4 Da, Dumnezeu este ajutorul meu,
Domnul(B) este sprijinul sufletului meu!
5 Răul se va întoarce asupra potrivnicilor mei;
nimiceşte-i în(C) credincioşia Ta!
6 Atunci Îţi voi aduce jertfe de bunăvoie,
voi lăuda Numele Tău, Doamne, căci(D) este binevoitor;
7 căci El mă izbăveşte din toate necazurile,
şi(E) cu ochii mei îmi văd împlinită dorinţa privitoare la vrăjmaşii mei.
