Save me, O God, by your name;

vindicate me by your might.

Hear my prayer, O God;

Arrogant foes are attacking me;

ruthless people are trying to kill me—

people without regard for God.54:3 The Hebrew has Selah (a word of uncertain meaning) here.

Surely God is my help;

the Lord is the one who sustains me.

Let evil recoil on those who slander me;

I will praise your name, Lord, for it is good.

You have delivered me from all my troubles,

and my eyes have looked in triumph on my foes.
