- 54Save me, O God, by your name, and judge me by your strength. 2Hear my prayer, O God. Give ear to the words of my mouth. 3For strangers are risen up against me and oppressors seek after my soul. They have not set God before them. Selah.
- 4Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is with them that uphold my soul. 5He shall reward evil unto my enemies. Cut them off in your truth. 6I will freely sacrifice unto you. I will praise your name, O Lord, for it is good. 7For he has delivered me out of all trouble and my eye has seen his desire upon my enemies.
