A Prayer for Protection from Enemies [Subnote: HEBREW TITLE: A poem by David, after the men from Ziph went to Saul and told him that David was hiding in their territory.]
1
Save me by your power, O God;
set me free by your might!
2
Hear my prayer, O God;
listen to my words!
3
Proud men are coming to attack me;
cruel men are trying to kill me—
men who do not care about God.
4
But God is my helper.
The Lord is my defender.
5
May God use their own evil to punish my enemies.
He will destroy them because he is faithful.
6
I will gladly offer you a sacrifice, O Lord;
I will give you thanks
because you are good.
7
You have rescued me from all my troubles,
and I have seen my enemies defeated.
