Save me, O God, by your name; vindicate me by your might.
Hear my prayer, O God; listen to the words of my mouth.
Strangers are attacking me;
ruthless men seek my life -- men without regard for God.
Surely God is my help; the Lord is the one who sustains me.
Let evil recoil(!) on those who slander me; in your faithfulness destroy them.
I will sacrifice a freewill offering to you;
I will praise your name, O Lord, for it is good.
For he has delivered me from all my troubles,
and my eyes have looked in triumph on my foes.
Psalm 54
