Psalm LIV

Save me, O God, by thy great name,
And judge me by thy [mighty] strength.

My prayer hear, O God, give ear
Unto my [suit and] words at length.

Oppressors seek after my life,
Strangers against me [joyntly] rise,
Because they have not set the Lord
[At all] with fear before their eyes.

But yet the Lord my helper is,
[Therefore] in him my soul is bold,
And with the just he taketh part,
Who do my soul [help and] uphold.

He shall repay hurt to my foes,
Who me with hate [watch and] observe;
According to thy truth cut off
These [wicked] men as they deserve.

Then I'le bring sacrifice to thee,
O Lord, with [chearful] willingness;
And praise thy name: for it is good
Thy [holy] praises to express.

When he hath me delivered
Out of [my great] adversities;
And when my eyes his justice see
On all my [wicked] enemies.
