Prayer for Defense against Enemies.

To the Chief Musician; with stringed instruments. A skillful song, or a didactic or reflective poem, of David, when the Ziphites went and told Saul, “David is hiding among us.”

1 Save me, O God, by Your name; And vindicate me by Your [wondrous] power.

2 Hear my prayer, O God; Listen to the words of my mouth.

3 For strangers have risen against me And violent men have sought my life; They have not set God before them. Selah.

4 Behold, God is my helper and ally; The Lord is the sustainer of my soul [my upholder].

5 He will pay back the evil to my enemies; In Your faithfulness destroy them.

6 With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to You; I will give thanks and praise Your name, O Lord, for it is good.

7 For He has rescued me from every trouble, And my eye has looked with satisfaction (triumph) on my enemies.
