Save me, O God, by thy name, And judge me in thy might.
Hear my prayer, O God; Give ear to the words of my mouth.
For strangers are risen up against me, And violent men have sought after my soul: They have not set God before them. Selah
Behold, God is my helper: The Lord is of them that uphold my soul.
He will requite the evil unto mine enemies: Destroy thou them in thy truth.

For he hath delivered me out of all trouble; And mine eye hath seen my desire upon mine enemies.
