1 Save me, O God, by your name;

vindicate me by your might.

2 Hear my prayer, O God;

listen to the words of my mouth.

3 Arrogant foes are attacking me;

ruthless people are trying to kill me—

people without regard for God.[c]

4 Surely God is my help;

the Lord is the one who sustains me.

5 Let evil recoil on those who slander me;

in your faithfulness destroy them.

6 I will sacrifice a freewill offering to you;

I will praise your name, Lord, for it is good.

7 You have delivered me from all my troubles,

and my eyes have looked in triumph on my foes.
