1 Ó Deus, salva-me, pelo teu nome,
e faze-me justiça, pelo teu poder.
2 Escuta, ó Deus, a minha oração,
dá ouvidos às palavras da minha boca.
3 Pois contra mim se levantam os insolentes,
e os violentos procuram tirar-me a vida;
não têm Deus diante de si.
4 Eis que Deus é o meu ajudador,
o Senhor é quem me sustenta a vida.
5 Ele retribuirá o mal aos meus opressores;
por tua fidelidade dá cabo deles.
6 Oferecer-te-ei voluntariamente sacrifícios;
louvarei o teu nome, ó Senhor, porque é bom.
7 Pois me livrou de todas as tribulações;
e os meus olhos se enchem com a ruína dos meus inimigos.
1 Save me, O God, by thy name,
And judge me in thy might.
2 Hear my prayer, O God;
Give ear to the words of my mouth.
3 For strangers are risen up against me,
And violent men have sought after my soul:
They have not set God before them. [Selah
4 Behold, God is my helper:
The Lord is of them that uphold my soul.
5 He will requite the evil unto mine enemies:
Destroy thou them in thy truth.
6 With a freewill-offering will I sacrifice unto thee:
I will give thanks unto thy name, O Jehovah, for it is good.
7 For he hath delivered me out of all trouble;
And mine eye hath seen my desire upon mine enemies.
1 Save me, O God, by your name; vindicate me by your might.
2 Hear my prayer, O God; listen to the words of my mouth.
3 Arrogant foes are attacking me; ruthless people are trying to kill me — people without regard for God. [^1]
4 Surely God is my help; the Lord is the one who sustains me.
5 Let evil recoil on those who slander me; in your faithfulness destroy them.
6 I will sacrifice a freewill offering to you; I will praise your name, LORD, for it is good.
7 You have delivered me from all my troubles, and my eyes have looked in triumph on my foes.
