Commentary on Psalms 54:4

Theological / Devotional

Helper. With dramatic abruptness the psalmist now expresses his absolute confidence in God’s deliverance. The psalmist knows that God is with him, although men are against him.

Them that uphold. The LXX has this phrase in the singular. In the LXX the second clause of the verse reads literally, “And the Lord is the helper [or protector] of my soul.”
