Ang Dios amo ang Manugbulig

54 O Dios, luwasa ako;
paagi sa imo gahom pamatud-i nga wala ako sing sala.
Pamatii ang akon mga pangamuyo,
kay ang mga taga-iban nga lugar nagasalakay sa akon agod patyon ako.
Mga mapintas sila kag wala nagakilala sa imo.
Pero sigurado ako nga ikaw, O Dios, amo ang nagabulig sa akon.
Ikaw, Ginoo, ang akon salandigan.
Kabay pa nga ang kalautan nga ginahimo sang akon mga kaaway magabalik sa ila.
Sa imo katutom, O Dios, laglaga sila.

Ginoo, magahalad ako sa imo sang halad nga kinabubut-on.
Dayawon ko ikaw kay maayo ikaw.
Kay hilwayon mo gid ako sa tanan ko nga kalisod,
kag makita ko gid ang pagkapierdi sang akon mga kaaway.

Psalm 54[a]

For the director of music. With stringed instruments. A maskil[b] of David. When the Ziphites(A) had gone to Saul and said, “Is not David hiding among us?”

Save me(B), O God, by your name;(C)
    vindicate me by your might.(D)
Hear my prayer, O God;(E)
    listen to the words of my mouth.

Arrogant foes are attacking me;(F)
    ruthless people(G) are trying to kill me(H)
    people without regard for God.[c](I)

Surely God is my help;(J)
    the Lord is the one who sustains me.(K)

Let evil recoil(L) on those who slander me;
    in your faithfulness(M) destroy them.

I will sacrifice a freewill offering(N) to you;
    I will praise(O) your name, Lord, for it is good.(P)
You have delivered me(Q) from all my troubles,
    and my eyes have looked in triumph on my foes.(R)

Answered Prayer for Deliverance from Adversaries

To the Chief Musician. With [a]stringed instruments. A [b]Contemplation of David (A)when the Ziphites went and said to Saul, “Is David not hiding with us?”

54 Save me, O God, by Your name,
And vindicate me by Your strength.
Hear my prayer, O God;
Give ear to the words of my mouth.
For strangers have risen up against me,
And oppressors have sought after my life;
They have not set God before them. Selah

Behold, God is my helper;
The Lord is with those who [c]uphold my life.
He will repay my enemies for their evil.
[d]Cut them off in Your [e]truth.

I will freely sacrifice to You;
I will praise Your name, O Lord, for it is good.
For He has delivered me out of all trouble;
(B)And my eye has seen its desire upon my enemies.

Save me, O God, [a]by thy Name, and by thy power judge me.

O God, hear my prayer: hearken unto the words of my mouth.

For [b]strangers are risen up against me, and [c]tyrants seek my soul: they have not set God before them. Selah.

Behold, God is mine helper: the Lord is with [d]them that uphold my soul.

He shall reward evil unto mine enemies: Oh cut them off in thy [e]truth!

Then I will sacrifice [f]freely unto thee: I will praise thy Name, O Lord, because it is good.

For he hath delivered me out of all trouble, and mine eye hath [g]seen my desire upon mine enemies.
