| 1To the chief Musician on Neginoth, Maschil, A Psalm of David, when the Ziphims came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us? Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me by thy strength. | 1God, save me by your name, and vindicate me by your might! |
| 2Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth. | 2God, hear my prayer; listen to the words from my mouth. |
| 3For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. Selah. | 3For strangers rise up against me, and violent men intend to kill me. They do not let God guide them. Selah |
| 4Behold, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that uphold my soul. | 4God is my helper; the Lord is the sustainer of my life. |
| 5He shall reward evil unto mine enemies: cut them off in thy truth. | 5He will repay my adversaries for their evil. Because of your faithfulness, annihilate them. |
| 6I will freely sacrifice unto thee: I will praise thy name, O LORD; for it is good. | 6I will sacrifice a freewill offering to you. I will praise your name, LORD, because it is good. |
| 7For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: and mine eye hath seen his desire upon mine enemies. | 7For he has rescued me from every trouble, and my eye has looked down on my enemies. |
