Tehillim 54:1-5 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

1. Hoshieini (save me), O Elohim, by Shimecha, and vindicate me by Thy gevurah (might, power).

2. (4) Hear my tefillah, O Elohim; give ear to the words of my mouth.

3. (5) For zarim (strangers) are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my nefesh; they have not set Elohim before them. Selah.

4. (6) Hinei, Elohim is mine Ozer (helper); Adonoi is with them that uphold my nefesh.

5. (7) He shall recompense the rah (evil) unto mine enemies; in Thy emes cut them off.
