1 Save me, O God, by your name ♦︎
and vindicate me by your power.
2 Hear my prayer, O God; ♦︎
give heed to the words of my mouth.
3 For strangers have risen up against me,
and the ruthless seek after my life; ♦︎
they have not set God before them.
4 Behold, God is my helper; ♦︎
it is the Lord who upholds my life.
6 An offering of a free heart will I give you ♦︎
and praise your name, O Lord, for it is gracious.
7 For he has delivered me out of all my trouble, ♦︎
and my eye has seen the downfall of my enemies.
