Psalm.
Chapter 54.
For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. A Maskil of David. When the Ziphites went to Saul and said, “Is David not hiding among us?” Save me, O God, by Your name, and vindicate me by Your might! 
Hear my prayer, O God; listen to the words of my mouth. 
For strangers rise up against me, and ruthless men seek my life— men with no regard for God. 
Surely God is my helper; the Lord is the sustainer of my soul. 
He will reward my enemies with evil. In Your faithfulness, destroy them. 
Freely I will sacrifice to You; I will praise Your name, O LORD, for it is good. 
For He has delivered me from every trouble, and my eyes have stared down my foes.
