1 Deliver me, O God, by Your name, and contend for me by Your strength.

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

3 For strangers have risen up against me, and terrible men seek after my soul; they have not set God before them. Selah.

4 Behold, God is my helper; the Lord is with those who uphold my soul.

5 He will repay evil to my enemies; cut them off in Your truth.

6 I will freely sacrifice unto You; I will praise Your name, O Jehovah, for it is good.

7 For He has delivered me out of all trouble; and my eye has seen its desire upon my enemies.
