English Standard Version | New Living Translation |
1O God, save me by your name, and vindicate me by your might. | 1Come with great power, O God, and rescue me! Defend me with your might. |
2O God, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth. | 2Listen to my prayer, O God. Pay attention to my plea. |
3For strangers have risen against me; ruthless men seek my life; they do not set God before themselves. Selah | 3For strangers are attacking me; violent people are trying to kill me. They care nothing for God. Interlude |
4Behold, God is my helper; the Lord is the upholder of my life. | 4But God is my helper. The Lord keeps me alive! |
5He will return the evil to my enemies; in your faithfulness put an end to them. | 5May the evil plans of my enemies be turned against them. Do as you promised and put an end to them. |
6With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to you; I will give thanks to your name, O LORD, for it is good. | 6I will sacrifice a voluntary offering to you; I will praise your name, O LORD, for it is good. |
7For he has delivered me from every trouble, and my eye has looked in triumph on my enemies. | 7For you have rescued me from my troubles and helped me to triumph over my enemies. |
