Psalm 54

A David Psalm, When the Ziphites Reported to Saul, “David Is Hiding Out with Us”

1-2 God, for your sake, help me!

Use your influence to clear me.

Listen, God—I’m desperate.

Don’t be too busy to hear me.

3 Outlaws are out to get me,

hit men are trying to kill me.

Nothing will stop them;

God means nothing to them.

4-5 Oh, look! God’s right here helping!

God’s on my side,

Evil is looping back on my enemies.

Don’t let up! Finish them off!

6-7 I’m ready now to worship, so ready.

I thank you,God—you’re so good.

You got me out of every scrape,

and I saw my enemies get it.
