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

1To the Overseer with stringed instruments. --An instruction, by David, in the coming in of the Ziphim, and they say to Saul, `Is not David hiding himself with us?' O God, by Thy name save me, and by Thy might judge me.

1 OGod, by thy name save me, and by thy strength do me justice.

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

2O God, hear my prayer, Give ear to the sayings of my mouth,

2 OGod, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth.

3For strangers are risen up against me, And violent men have sought after my soul: They have not set God before them. [Selah
