Psalms 54

The psalmist cries out to God for salvation and vindication from ruthless men who seek to harm him, but he trusts in God's help and sustenance. He asks God to destroy those who slander him and promises to offer a freewill sacrifice in gratitude. The psalmist expresses confidence in God's deliverance and his ability to triumph over his foes.

1Save me, O God, by your name; vindicate me by your might.2Hear my prayer, O God; listen to the words of my mouth.3Strangers are attacking me; ruthless men seek my life- men without regard for God. Selah4Surely God is my help; the Lord is the one who sustains me.5Let evil recoil on those who slander me; in your faithfulness destroy them.6I will sacrifice a freewill offering to you; I will praise your name, O LORD, for it is good.7For he has delivered me from all my troubles, and my eyes have looked in triumph on my foes.
