Psalm 54

¹Save me, O God, by your Name; *in your might, defend my cause.

²Hear my prayer, O God; *give ear to the words of my mouth.

³For the arrogant have risen up against me, and the ruthless have sought my life, *those who have no regard for God.

⁴Behold, God is my helper; *it is the Lord who sustains my life.

⁵Render evil to those who spy on me; *in your faithfulness, destroy them.

⁶I will offer you a freewill sacrifice *and praise your Name, O Lord, for it is good.

⁷For you have rescued me from every trouble, *and my eye has seen the ruin of my foes.
