Save Me by Your Name

1 Samuel 23:7–29

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.+ 2O God, hear my prayer, Give ear to the sayings of my mouth,+ 3For strangers have risen up against me And terrible ones have sought my soul, They have not set God before them. Selah.+ 4Lo, God is a helper to me, The Lord is with those supporting my soul,+ 5Turn back doth the evil thing to mine enemies, In Thy truth cut them off.+ 6With a free will-offering I sacrifice to Thee, I thank Thy name, O Jehovah, for it is good,+ 7For, from all adversity He delivered me, And on mine enemies hath mine eye looked!+
