# Psalm 54 To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. A Maskil of David, when the Ziphites went and told Saul, “Is not David hiding among us?” 
<a id="1" name="1"></a>
1. O God, save me by your name, and vindicate me by your might. 
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
2. O God, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth. 
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
3. For strangers have risen against me; ruthless men seek my life; they do not set God before themselves. Selah 
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
4. Behold, God is my helper; the Lord is the upholder of my life. 
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
5. He will return the evil to my enemies; in your faithfulness put an end to them. 
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
6. With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to you; I will give thanks to your name, O LORD, for it is good. 
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
7. For he has delivered me from every trouble, and my eye has looked in triumph on my enemies.
