Justify me by your power

(1 Samuel 23:7-29)
1
TO THE OVERSEER. WITH STRINGED INSTRUMENTS. AN INSTRUCTION OF DAVID, IN THE COMING IN OF THE ZIPHIM, AND THEY SAY TO SAUL, “IS DAVID NOT HIDING HIMSELF WITH US?” O God, save me by Your Name, and judge me by Your might.
2
O God, hear my prayer, || Give ear to the sayings of my mouth,
3
For strangers have risen up against me || And terrible ones have sought my soul, || They have not set God before them. Selah.
4
Behold, God [is] a helper to me, || The Lord [is] with those supporting my soul,
5
Turn back the evil to my enemies, || Cut them off in Your truth.
6
I sacrifice to You with a free-will offering, || I thank Your Name, O YHWH, for [it is] good,
7
For He delivered me from all adversity, || And my eye has looked on my enemies!

Justify me by your power

(1 Samuel 23:7-29)
1
Save me, God, by your name. Vindicate me in your might.
2
Hear my prayer, God. Listen to the words of my mouth.
3
For strangers have risen up against me. Violent men have sought after my soul. They haven’t set God before them. Selah.
4
Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is the one who sustains my soul.
5
He will repay the evil to my enemies. Destroy them in your truth.
6
With a free will offering, I will sacrifice to you. I will give thanks to your name, LORD, for it is good.
7
For he has delivered me out of all trouble. My eye has seen triumph over my enemies.
