1 |
Unto the end, In verses, understanding for David. --
|
2 |
When the men of Ziph had come and said to Saul: Is not David hidden with us? --
|
3 |
Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me in thy strength. --
|
4 |
O God, hear my prayer: give ear to the words of my mouth. --
|
5 |
For strangers have risen up against me; and the mighty have sought after my soul: and they have not set God before their eyes. --
|
6 |
For behold God is my helper: and the Lord is the protector of my soul. --
|
7 |
Turn back the evils upon my enemies; and cut them off in thy truth. --
|
8 |
I will freely sacrifice to thee, and will give praise, O God, to thy name: because it is good: --
|
9 |
For thou hast delivered me out of all trouble: and my eye hath looked down upon my enemies. --
