The second book of Psalms, song 54, Vulgate and King James Version

Psalm 54

Vulgate

   1 Magistro chori. Fidibus. Maskil. David,
   2 postquam Ziphaei ad Saul venerunt dicentes: "Ecce David apud nos abditus latet".
   3 Deus, in nomine tuo salvum me fac et in virtute tua iudica me.
   4 Deus, exaudi orationem meam, auribus percipe verba oris mei!
   5 Quoniam superbi insurrexerunt adversum me, et fortes quaesierunt animam meam et non proposuerunt Deum ante conspectum suum.
   6 Ecce enim Deus adiuvat me, et Dominus susceptor est animae meae.
   7 Converte mala super inimicos meos et in veritate tua disperde illos.
   8 Voluntarie sacrificabo tibi, confitebor nomini tuo, Domine, quoniam bonum est;
   9 quoniam ex omni tribulatione eripuit me, et super inimicos meos despexit oculus meus.

King James Version

   To the chief Musician on Neginoth, Maschil, A Psalm of David, when the Ziphims came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us?
   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.
