54:1 David wrote this special song for the music leader. He must use stringed instruments. It was when the men of Ziph went to Saul and they said, ‘David is hiding with us.’ God, you are great, so please help me! Use your power to show that I am right.
54:2 God, hear my prayer, and listen carefully to what I am saying.
54:3 Strangers are attacking me! Cruel people want to kill me. They do not respect you, God. Selah.
54:4 But I know that God is the one who gives me help. My Lord takes care of me.
54:5 Pay back my enemies with their own evil. Please do what you have promised and destroy them.
54:6 I choose to offer a sacrifice to thank you. Lord, you are always good, so I want to praise your name.
54:7 Yes, God has saved me from all my trouble. When I looked at my enemies, I see that I have won against them.
