Psal. 54. Deus, in nomine.
Ad Præstantem, in Neghinoth, Maschil Davidis, cùm venissent Ziphæi, & dixissent Sauli, Nonne David abscondit se nobiscum?
1
Thy Name in this distresse of mine,O God, to save mee send:
To judge me, as revenge is thine,
thy powerfull strength extend.
2
Unto my praier, O God, draw neere,that I to thee commend;
And of my mouth the words to heare,
thine eare attentive bend.
3
For strangers up against me rise,and tyrants take the way,
Not taking God before their eies,
to marke my soule their prey.
4
But God my helper is, behold,in my defence to stand:
To help them that my soule uphold,
the Lord is neere at hand.
5
By evill that my foes contrive,of their desir'd successe,
His like reward shall them deprive,
them in thy truth suppresse.
6
An offring of a free-will'd heartto thee will I present;
And praise thy Name, O Lord, that art
to goodnesse wholly bent.
7
For by the helps he did apply,my troubles all expire:
101
hath seen my full desire.
