1 S ave me, O God, by Your name, And vindicate me by Your power.

2 H ear my prayer, O God; Give ear to the words of my mouth.

3 F or strangers have risen against me And violent men have sought my life; They have not set God before them. Selah.

4 B ehold, God is my helper; The Lord is the sustainer of my soul.

5 H e will recompense the evil to my foes; Destroy them in Your faithfulness.

6 W illingly I will sacrifice to You; I will give thanks to Your name, O Lord, for it is good.

7 F or He has delivered me from all trouble, And my eye has looked with satisfaction upon my enemies.
