No reply* - The Beatles

'Moses was a humble (meek) man, unlike many who rise to positions of great power and prestige. When attacked, he did not defend himself but rather laid the matter before God and waited for God's vindication'.
Excerpt from my Bible Study notes obtained last night

Psalm 54

1 Save me, O God, by your name;
vindicate me by your might.

2 Hear my prayer, O God;
listen to the words of my mouth.

3 Strangers are attacking me;
ruthless men seek my life—
men without regard for God.

4 Surely God is my help;
the Lord is the one who sustains me.

5 Let evil recoil on those who slander me;
in your faithfulness destroy them.

6 I will sacrifice a freewill offering to you;
I will praise your name, O LORD,
for it is good.

7 For he has delivered me from all my troubles,
and my eyes have looked in triumph on my foes.

I shall try to remain silent and trust in God.

*From their album Beatles for Sale, released in 1964.
