Psalms 54 & 63

Psalm 54

1. Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me by thy strength.
2. Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.
3. For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. Selah.
4. Behold, God [is] mine helper: the Lord [is] with them that uphold my soul.
5. He shall reward evil unto mine enemies: cut them off in thy truth.
6. I will freely sacrifice unto thee: I will praise thy name, O LORD; for [it is] good.
7. For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: and mine eye hath seen [his desire] upon mine enemies.

Psalm 63

1. O God, thou [art] my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
2. To see thy power and thy glory, so [as] I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
3. Because thy lovingkindness [is] better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
4. Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
5. My soul shall be satisfied as [with] marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise [thee] with joyful lips:
6. When I remember thee upon my bed, [and] meditate on thee in the [night] watches.
7. Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
8. My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.
9. But those [that] seek my soul, to destroy [it], shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
10. They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.
11. But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
