To the chief Musician on Neginoth, Maschil, A Psalm of David, when the Ziphim came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us?

1 Save me, O God, by thy name, And judge me by thy strength.

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

3 For strangers are risen up against me, And oppressors seek after my soul: They have not set God before them. Selah.

4 Behold, God is mine helper: The Lord is with them that uphold my soul.

5 He shall reward evil unto mine enemies: Cut them off in thy truth.

6 I will freely sacrifice unto thee: I will praise thy name, O LORD; for it is good.

7 For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: And mine eye hath seen his desire upon mine enemies.
