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.

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

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

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

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

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

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