In Hebrew, the word used here is "הַצִּילֵנִי" (hatzileni), which comes from the root "נצל" (natsal), meaning to snatch away, rescue, or save. This word is often used in the context of God intervening to save His people from danger or distress. The psalmist's cry for deliverance reflects a deep trust in God's power and willingness to save. Historically, this plea resonates with the many instances in the Old Testament where God delivered Israel from their enemies, reinforcing the belief in God's protective nature.
