- Kapitel 54 -

Justify me by your power

(1 Samuel 23:7-29)

TO THE OVERSEER. WITH STRINGED INSTRUMENTS. AN INSTRUCTION OF DAVID, IN THE COMING IN OF THE ZIPHIM, AND THEY SAY TO SAUL, “IS DAVID NOT HIDING HIMSELF WITH US?” O God, save me by Your Name, and judge me by Your might.

O God, hear my prayer, || Give ear to the sayings of my mouth,

For strangers have risen up against me || And terrible ones have sought my soul, || They have not set God before them. Selah.

Behold, God [is] a helper to me, || The Lord [is] with those supporting my soul,

Turn back the evil to my enemies, || Cut them off in Your truth.

I sacrifice to You with a free-will offering, || I thank Your Name, O YHWH, for [it is] good,

For He delivered me from all adversity, || And my eye has looked on my enemies!

Justify me by your power

(1 Samuel 23:7-29)

Save me, God, by your name. Vindicate me in your might.

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

For strangers have risen up against me. Violent men have sought after my soul. They haven’t set God before them. Selah.

Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is the one who sustains my soul.

He will repay the evil to my enemies. Destroy them in your truth.

With a free will offering, I will sacrifice to you. I will give thanks to your name, LORD, for it is good.

For he has delivered me out of all trouble. My eye has seen triumph over my enemies.
