Chapter 54
(Passion Bible)
Psalms 54
Ready to read
1
For the Pure and Shining One, David’s contemplative song of instruction A song of derision[1] when the Ziphites betrayed David to Saul, saying, “David is hiding among us; come and get him!” God, deliver me by your mighty name! Come with your glorious power and save me!
2
Listen to my prayer; turn your ears to my cry!
3
These violent men have risen up against me; heartless, ruthless men[2] who care nothing about God seek to take my life. — Pause in his presence
4
But the Lord God has become my divine helper. He leans into my heart and lays his hands upon me![3]
5
God will see to it that those who sow evil will reap evil. So Lord, in your great faithfulness, destroy them once and for all!
6
Lord, I will offer myself freely, and everything I am I give to you. I will worship and praise your name, O Lord, for it is precious to me.
7
Through you I’m saved — rescued from every trouble. I’ve seen with my eyes the defeat of my enemies. I’ve triumphed over them all!
