54:1 Save me by your power, O God; set me free by your might! |
54:2 Hear my prayer, O God; listen to my words! |
54:3 Proud people are coming to attack me; cruel people are trying to kill me--- those who do not care about God. |
54:4 But God is my helper. The Lord is my defender. |
54:5 May God use their own evil to punish my enemies. He will destroy them because he is faithful. |
54:6 I will gladly offer you a sacrifice, O LORD; I will give you thanks because you are good. |
54:7 You have rescued me from all my troubles, and I have seen my enemies defeated. |
