西弗人來對掃羅說:「大衛豈不是在我們那裏藏身嗎?」那時,大衛作這訓誨詩。交給聖詠團長,用絲弦的樂器。

遭敵迫害求主保護

(撒上23.14-24)

  1上帝啊,求你因你的名拯救我,
   憑你的大能為我伸冤。
  2上帝啊,求你聽我的禱告,
   側耳聽我口中的言語。
  3因為陌生人興起攻擊我,
   強橫的人尋索我的性命;
  他們眼中沒有上帝。(細拉)

  4看哪,上帝是幫助我的,
   主是扶持我性命的,
  5他要報應我仇敵所作的惡;
   求你憑你的信實滅絕他們。

  6我要把甘心祭獻給你;
   耶和華啊,我要頌揚你的名,這名本為美好。
  7他從一切的急難中把我救出來,
   我的眼睛也看見了我的仇敵遭報。

For the director of music. With stringed instruments. A maskil of David. When the Ziphites had gone to Saul and said, “Is not David hiding among us?”
  1Save me, O God, by your name;
   vindicate me by your might.
  2Hear my prayer, O God;
   listen to the words of my mouth.

  3Arrogant foes are attacking me;
   ruthless people are trying to kill me—
   people without regard for God.

  4Surely God is my help;
   the Lord is the one who sustains me.

  5Let evil recoil on those who slander me;
   in your faithfulness destroy them.

  6I will sacrifice a freewill offering to you;
   I will praise your name, Lord, for it is good.
  7You have delivered me from all my troubles,
   and my eyes have looked in triumph on my foes.
