| To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. | Song for the Distressed. Psalm 54(v53) | לַמְנַצֵּחַ בִּנְגִינֹת מַשְׂכִּיל לְדָוִד׃ | |
| A Maskil of David, when the Ziphites went and told Saul, "David is in hiding among us." | |||
| 54 1 | Save me, O God, by thy name, and vindicate me by thy might. | בְּבֹוא הַזִּיפִים וַיֹּאמְרוּ לְשָׁאוּל הֲלֹא דָוִד מִסְתַּתֵּר עִמָּנוּ׃ | |
| 54 1 | Save me, O God, by thy name, and vindicate me by thy might. | אֱלֹהִים בְּשִׁמְךָ הֹושִׁיעֵנִי וּבִגְבוּרָתְךָ תְדִינֵנִי׃ | |
| 2 | Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth. | אֱלֹהִים שְׁמַע תְּפִלָּתִי הַאֲזִינָה לְאִמְרֵי־פִי׃ | |
| 3 | For insolent men have risen against me, ruthless men seek my life; they do not set God before them. Selah | כִּי זָרִים קָמוּ עָלַי וְעָרִיצִים בִּקְשׁוּ נַפְשִׁי לֹא שָׂמוּ אֱלֹהִים לְנֶגְדָּם סֶלָה׃ | |
| 4 | Behold, God is my helper; the Lord is the upholder of my life. | הִנֵּה אֱלֹהִים עֹזֵר לִי אֲדֹנָי בְּסֹמְכֵי נַפְשִׁי׃ | |
| 5 | He will requite my enemies with evil; in thy faithfulness put an end to them. | כ= יָשֹׁוב ק= יָשִׁיב הָרַע לְשֹׁרְרָי בַּאֲמִתְּךָ הַצְמִיתֵם׃ | |
| 6 | With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to thee; I will give thanks to thy name, O LORD, for it is good. | בִּנְדָבָה אֶזְבְּחָה־לָּךְ אֹודֶה שִּׁמְךָ יְהוָה כִּי־טֹוב׃ | |
| 7 | For thou hast delivered me from every trouble, and my eye has looked in triumph on my enemies. | כִּי מִכָּל־צָרָה הִצִּילָנִי וּבְאֹיְבַי רָאֲתָה עֵינִי׃ | |
