Comment – In a very concise form, in Psalm 54 God is invoked asking for salvation against enemies. The psalmist undertakes to offer God a sacrifice in which praise for him abounds, for his greatness and infinite mercy. In reality, the true holocaust to offer to the Lord is the commitment of a life made of penance, to be united in intimate with the sacrifice inherent in the Eucharist.
Psalm 54 complete
[1] To the choir master. For stringed instruments. Maskil. Di Davide.
[2] After the Zifei came to Saul to say to him, "Behold, David is hiding with us."
[3] God, for your name, save me, for your power do me justice.
[4] God, listen to my prayer, put your ear to the words of my mouth;
[5] since arrogant and arrogant men have risen against my life, they do not place God before them.
[6] Behold, God is my help, the Lord sustains me.
[7] Make evil fall upon my enemies, dispel them in your faithfulness.
[8] With all my heart I will offer you a sacrifice, Lord, I will praise your name because it is good;
[9] from all anguish you have freed me and my eye has challenged my enemies.
