| 1 | For the choir director: with stringed instruments. A Davidic Maskil. When the Ziphites went and said to Saul, “Is David not hiding among us?” God, save me by Your name, and vindicate me by Your might! | O God, save me by your name, and vindicate me by your might. | For the director of music. With stringed instruments. A maskil of David. When the Ziphites had gone to Saul and said, “Is not David hiding among us?” Save me, O God, by your name; vindicate me by your might. | |
| 2 | God, hear my prayer; listen to the words of my mouth. | O God, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth. | Hear my prayer, O God; listen to the words of my mouth. | |
| 3 | For strangers rise up against me, and violent men seek my life. They have no regard for God. Selah | For strangers have risen against me; ruthless men seek my life; they do not set God before themselves. Selah | Arrogant foes are attacking me; ruthless people are trying to kill me— people without regard for God. | |
| 4 | God is my helper; the Lord is the sustainer of my life. | Behold, God is my helper; the Lord is the upholder of my life. | Surely God is my help; the Lord is the one who sustains me. | |
| 5 | He will repay my adversaries for their evil. Because of Your faithfulness, annihilate them. | He will return the evil to my enemies; in your faithfulness put an end to them. | Let evil recoil on those who slander me; in your faithfulness destroy them. | |
| 6 | I will sacrifice a freewill offering to You. I will praise Your name, Yahweh, because it is good. | With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to you; I will give thanks to your name, O LORD, for it is good. | I will sacrifice a freewill offering to you; I will praise your name, LORD, for it is good. | |
| 7 | For He has delivered me from every trouble, and my eye has looked down on my enemies. | For he has delivered me from every trouble, and my eye has looked in triumph on my enemies. | You have delivered me from all my troubles, and my eyes have looked in triumph on my foes. | |
