PSLAM 54--the fighter/bard, David
"PSALM 54--the fighter/bard, David"
The most read poet--King David. It usually wends in the direction of the Bible; then, Shakespeare; next, Agatha Christie as being things mostly read. But first, from Guns and Roses:
Your stupid girlfriends tell you that I'm to blame--
Girl they're all used up has-beens, out of the game--
If they knew half the real truth, what would they say?
PSALM 54:
Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me by thy strength.
Hear my prayer, O God: give ear to the words of my mouth.
For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them.
Behold, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that uphold my soul.
He shall reward evil unto mine enemies: cut them off in thy truth.
