1 S ave me, O God, by thy name, And judge me in thy might.

Hear my pleading and my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.

3 F or 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 and ally; the Lord is my upholder and is with them who uphold my life.

He will pay back evil to my enemies; in Your faithfulness put an end to them.

6 W ith a freewill-offering will I sacrifice unto thee: I will give thanks unto thy name, O Jehovah, for it is good.

With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to You; I will give thanks and praise Your name, O Lord, for it is good.

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

For He has delivered me out of every trouble, and my eye has looked on my enemies.
