1 Til Korherren. Til Strengespil. Maskil af David (54:2) Dengang Folkene fra Zim kom og fortalte Saul, at David skjulte sig hos dem (54:3) Frels mig o Gud, ved dit navn og skaf mig min ret ved din Vælde,

1 For the choir director; on stringed instruments. A Maskil of David, when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, “Is not David hiding himself among us?”Save me, O God, by Your name,And vindicate me by Your power.

2 (54:4) hør, o Gud, min Bøn, lyt til min Munds Ord!

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

3 (54:5) Thi frække står op imod mig, Voldsmænd vil tage mit Liv; Gud har de ikke for Øje. - Sela.

3 For strangers have risen against meAnd violent men have sought my life;They have not set God before them. Selah.

4 (54:6) Se, min Hjælper er Gud, Herren støtter min Sjæl!

4 Behold, God is my helper;The Lord is the sustainer of my soul.

5 (54:7) Det onde vende sig mod mine Fjender, udryd dem i din Trofasthed!

5 He will recompense the evil to my foes;Destroy them in Your faithfulness.

6 (54:8) Da vil jeg frivilligt ofre til dig, prise dit Navn, o HERRE, thi det er godt;

6 Willingly I will sacrifice to You;I will give thanks to Your name, O Lord, for it is good.

7 (54:9) thi det frier mig ud af al Nød; mit Øje skuer med Fryd mine Fjender! 

7 For He has delivered me from all trouble,And my eye has looked with satisfaction upon my enemies.
