Salmi 54
La Nuova Diodati
54 «Al maestro del coro. Cantico di Davide quando gli Ziffei vennero da Saul a dirgli: «Non è Davide nascosto tra di noi?».» O DIO, salvami per il tuo nome e fammi giustizia per la tua potenza.
2 O DIO, ascolta la mia preghiera e porgi orecchio alle parole della mia bocca.
3 Perché degli stranieri si sono levati contro di me, e dei violenti cercano la mia vita, uomini che non tengono DIO davanti ai loro occhi. (Sela)
4 Ecco DIO è il mio aiuto, il Signore è colui che sostiene la mia vita.
5 Egli retribuirà i miei nemici del male fattomi, nella tua fedeltà distruggili.
6 DIO tutto cuore ti offrirò sacrifici; celebrerò il tuo nome, o Eterno, perché è buono;
7 poiché mi hai liberato da ogni angoscia, il mio occhio ha visto sui miei nemici ciò che desideravo.
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.
