Save Me by Your Name
(1 Samuel 23:7–29)
For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. A Maskil 1of David. When the Ziphites went to Saul and said, “Is David not hiding among us?”
Save me, O God, by Your name, Pro 18:101Sa 26:1Act 4:12Psa 20:1Psa 79:9Psa 48:10Mat 1:21Exo 3:14-15
and vindicate me by Your might!
Hear my prayer, O God; Psa 130:2Psa 13:3Psa 143:7Psa 5:1-3Psa 55:1-2
listen to the words of my mouth.
For strangers rise up against me, Psa 86:14Psa 36:1Jhn 16:3Psa 53:4Job 19:13-15Psa 16:8Psa 22:16Psa 40:14
and ruthless men seek my life—
men with no regard for God.

the Lord is the sustainer of my soul.

For He has delivered me from every trouble, Psa 59:10Psa 112:8Psa 92:11Psa 118:72Ti 4:18Psa 37:34Psa 34:19Psa 34:6
and my eyes have stared down my foes.
