New King James Version | Christian Standard Bible |
1To the Chief Musician. With stringed instruments. A Contemplation of David when the Ziphites went and said to Saul, “Is David not hiding with us?” Save me, O God, by Your name, And vindicate me by Your 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 have risen up against me, And oppressors have sought after my life; 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 my helper; The Lord is with those who uphold my life. | 4God is my helper; the Lord is the sustainer of my life. |
5He will repay my enemies for their evil. Cut them off in Your truth. | 5He will repay my adversaries for their evil. Because of your faithfulness, annihilate them. |
6I will freely sacrifice to You; I will praise Your 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 has delivered me out of all trouble; And my eye has seen its desire upon my enemies. | 7For he has rescued me from every trouble, and my eye has looked down on my enemies. |
