PSALM 54
Deus, in Nomine.

Save me, O God, for thy | Name's sake,

* and a- | -venge me in thy strength.

2 Hear my | prayer, O God,

* and hearken unto the | words of my mouth.

3 For strangers are risen | up against me;

* and tyrants, which have not God before their eyes, | seek •after• my soul.

4 Behold, God | is my helper;

* the Lord is with them | that uphold my soul.

5 He shall reward evil | unto• mine enemies:

* destroy thou | them in thy truth.

6 An offering of a free heart will I give thee, and praise thy | Name, O LORD;

* be- | -cause it is so comfortable.

7 For he hath delivered me out of | all my trouble;

* and mine eye hath seen his de- | -sire upon mine enemies.

Glory be to the Father, and | to the Son,

* and | to the Holy Ghost,

As it was in the beginning, is now, and | ever shall be,

* world without | end.  Amen.
