A Psalm of David, when the Ziphites betrayed him and told Saul, “Does David not hide himself with us?”

1Save me, O God, by Your name, and judge and defend me by Your power. 2Hear my prayer, O God; and consider my plea. 3For strangers have come against me, who seek to kill me, and have no regard for You, O God. Selah.

4But You, LORD, are my helper; and the sustainer of my soul. 5You will repay my enemies for their evil deeds. Annihilate them in Your faithfulness. 6I will gladly offer sacrifice unto You; I will praise Your great name, O LORD. 7For You have rescued me out of all trouble; and I have seen the defeat of my enemies.
