Psalms 54:3 in Context — Psalms 54

1 Al Músico principal: en Neginoth: Masquil de David, cuando vinieron los Zipheos y dijeron á Saúl: ¿No está David escondido en nuestra tierra? OH Dios, sálvame por tu nombre, y con tu poder defiéndeme.

2 Oh Dios, oye mi oración; escucha las razones de mi boca.

3 Porque extraños se han levantado contra mí, y fuertes buscan mi alma: no han puesto á Dios delante de sí. (Selah.)

4 He aquí, Dios es el que me ayuda; el Señor es con los que sostienen mi vida.

5 El volverá el mal á mis enemigos: córtalos por tu verdad.
