The Book of Psalms
Psalm 53
Deus, in nomine tuo.
A prayer for help in distress.
 1 |
Unto the end, in verses, understanding for David. |
2 |
When the en of Ziph had come and said to Saul: Is not David hidden with us? [1 Kings 23.19] |
3 |
Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me in thy strength. |
4 |
O God, hear my prayer: give ear to the words of my mouth. |
5 |
For strangers have risen up against me; and the mighty have sought after my soul: and they have not set God before their eyes. |
6 |
For behold God is my helper: and the Lord is the protector of my soul. |
7 |
Turn back the evils upon my enemies; and cut them off in thy truth. |
8 |
I will freely sacrifice to thee, and will give praise, O God, to thy name: because it is good: |
9 |
For thou hast delivered me out of all trouble: and my eye hath looked down upon my enemies. |
