CHAP. LIV.

1 Dauid complaining of the Ziphims, prayeth for saluation. 4 Vpon his confidence in Gods helpe, he promiseth sacrifice.

¹ [To the chiefe musician on Neginoth, Maschil, A Psalme of Dauid. When the Ziphims came and sayde to Saul: doeth not Dauid hide himselfe with vs?] Saue me, O God, by thy name, and iudge me by thy strength.

² Heare my prayer, O God; giue eare to the words of my mouth.

³ For strangers are risen vp against me, and oppressors seeke after my soule; they haue not set God before them. Selah.

⁴ Behold, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that vphold my soule.

⁵ He shall reward euill vnto mine enemies: cut them off in thy trueth.⁵

⁶ I will freely sacrifice vnto thee; I will praise thy name (O Lord:) for it is good.
