Psalm 54

Psalm 53 Psalm 55

Psalm 54 New International Version (NIV)

Psalm 54^[a]

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

¹Save me, O God, by your name;
vindicate me by your might.
²Hear my prayer, O God;
listen to the words of my mouth.

³Arrogant foes are attacking me;
ruthless people are trying to kill me—
people without regard for God.^[c]

⁴Surely God is my help;
the Lord is the one who sustains me.

⁵Let evil recoil on those who slander me;
in your faithfulness destroy them.

⁶I will sacrifice a freewill offering to you;
I will praise your name, Lord, for it is good.
⁷You have delivered me from all my troubles,
and my eyes have looked in triumph on my foes.
