Psalm 54
21st Century King James Version
54 Save me, O God, by Thy name, and judge me by Thy strength.
2 Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.
3 For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul; they have not set God before them. Selah
4 Behold, God is mine helper; the Lord is with them that uphold my soul.
5 He shall reward evil unto mine enemies; cut them off in Thy truth.
6 I will freely sacrifice unto Thee; I will praise Thy name, O Lord, for it is good.
7 For He hath delivered me out of all trouble, and mine eye hath seen my desire upon mine enemies.
