{א} לַמְנַצֵּחַ בִּנְגִינֹת מַשְׂכִּיל לְדָוִד:
{ב} בְּבוֹא הַזִּיפִים וַיֹּאמְרוּ לְשָׁאוּל הֲלֹא דָוִד מִסְתַּתֵּר עִמָּנוּ:
{ג} אֱלֹהִים בְּשִׁמְךָ הוֹשִׁיעֵנִי וּבִגְבוּרָתְךָ תְדִינֵנִי:
{ד} אֱלֹהִים שְׁמַע תְּפִלָּתִי הַאֲזִינָה לְאִמְרֵי פִי:
{ה} כִּי זָרִים קָמוּ עָלַי וְעָרִיצִים בִּקְשׁוּ נַפְשִׁי לֹא שָׂמוּ אֱלֹהִים לְנֶגְדָּם סֶלָה:
{ו} הִנֵּה אֱלֹהִים עֹזֵר לִי אֲדֹנָי בְּסֹמְכֵי נַפְשִׁי:
{ז} (ישוב) יָשִׁיב הָרַע לְשֹׁרְרָי בַּאֲמִתְּךָ הַצְמִיתֵם:
{ח} בִּנְדָבָה אֶזְבְּחָה לָּךְ אוֹדֶה שִּׁמְךָ יְהוָה כִּי טוֹב:
{ט} כִּי מִכָּל צָרָה הִצִּילָנִי וּבְאֹיְבַי רָאֲתָה עֵינִי:

Tehillim 54 : Transliteration

Lamnatsêach binguinót maskil ledavid
Bevo hazifim vaiomeru leshaul, halo David mistater imánu
Elohim beshimchá hoshiêni, uvigvuratechá tedinêni
Elohim shemá tefilati, haazína leimrê fi
Ki zarim cámu alai vearitsim bic’shu nafshi, lo sámu Elohim lenegdam sêla
Hine Elohim ozer li, Adonai bessomechê nafshi
Iashiv hara leshorerai, baamitechá hatsmitem
Bindavá ezbechá lach, odê shimchá Adonai ki tov
Ki micol tsará hitsiláni, uveoievai raata eni

1. To the chief Musician for stringed instruments, A Maskil of David,
2. When the Ziphites came and said to Saul, Does not David hide himself with us?
3. Save me, O God, by your name, and judge me by your strength.
4. Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.
