Psm7:1 O LORD my God, in you I take refuge; save me from all my pursuers, and deliver me,
Psm7:2 or like a lion they will tear me apart; they will drag me away, with no one to rescue.
Psm7:3 O LORD my God, if I have done this, if there is wrong in my hands,
Psm7:4 if I have repaid my ally with harm or plundered my foe without cause,
Psm7:5 then let the enemy pursue and overtake me, trample my life to the ground, and lay my soul in the dust.Selah
Psm7:6 Rise up, O LORD, in your anger; lift yourself up against the fury of my enemies; awake, O my God; you have appointed a judgment.
Psm7:7 Let the assembly of the peoples be gathered around you, and over it take your seat on high.
Psm7:8 The LORD judges the peoples; judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness and according to the integrity that is in me.
Psm7:9 O let the evil of the wicked come to an end, but establish the righteous, you who test the minds and hearts, O righteous God.
Psm7:10 God is my shield, who saves the upright in heart.
Psm7:11 God is a righteous judge, and a God who has indignation every day.
Psm7:12 If one does not repent, God will whet his sword; he has bent and strung his bow;
Psm7:13 he has prepared his deadly weapons, making his arrows fiery shafts.
Psm7:14 See how they conceive evil, and are pregnant with mischief, and bring forth lies.
Psm7:15 They make a pit, digging it out, and fall into the hole that they have made.
Psm7:16 Their mischief returns upon their own heads, and on their own heads their violence descends.
Psm7:17 I will give to the LORD the thanks due to his righteousness, and sing praise to the name of the LORD, the Most High.
Psm7:18
