Psalm 54

Ruthless Men Seek My Life

1God, save me by your name.

By your power judge me justly.

2God, hear my prayer.

Turn your ear to the words of my mouth.

3For strangers have risen up against me.

Ruthless men seek my life.

They pay no attention to God. Interlude

4Indeed, God is my helper.

The Lord is the one who preserves my life.

5Let evil return on those who oppress me.

In your faithfulness destroy them.

6I will sacrifice willingly to you.

I will praise your name, O Lord , because it is good.

7Surely, from all my distress he has delivered me.

My eyes have looked down on my enemies.
