Psm7:1 `The Erring One,' by David, that he sung to Jehovah concerning the words of Cush a Benjamite. O Jehovah, my God, in Thee I have trusted, Save me from all my pursuers, and deliver me.
Psm7:2 Lest he tear as a lion my soul, Rending, and there is no deliverer.
Psm7:3 O Jehovah, my God, if I have done this, If there is iniquity in my hands,
Psm7:4 If I have done my well-wisher evil, And draw mine adversary without cause,
Psm7:5 An enemy pursueth my soul, and overtaketh, And treadeth down to the earth my life, And my honour placeth in the dust. Selah.
Psm7:6 Rise, O Jehovah, in Thine anger, Be lifted up at the wrath of mine adversaries, And awake Thou for me: Judgment Thou hast commanded:
Psm7:7 And a company of peoples compass Thee, And over it on high turn Thou back,
Psm7:8 Jehovah doth judge the peoples; Judge me, O Jehovah, According to my righteousness, And according to mine integrity on me,
Psm7:9 Let, I pray Thee be ended the evil of the wicked, And establish Thou the righteous, And a trier of hearts and reins is the righteous God.
Psm7:10 My shield [is] on God, Saviour of the upright in heart!
Psm7:11 God [is] a righteous judge, And He is not angry at all times.
Psm7:12 If [one] turn not, His sword he sharpeneth, His bow he hath trodden -- He prepareth it,
Psm7:13 Yea, for him He hath prepared Instruments of death, His arrows for burning pursuers He maketh.
Psm7:14 Lo, he travaileth [with] iniquity, And he hath conceived perverseness, And hath brought forth falsehood.
Psm7:15 A pit he hath prepared, and he diggeth it, And he falleth into a ditch he maketh.
Psm7:16 Return doth his perverseness on his head, And on his crown his violence cometh down.
Psm7:17 I thank Jehovah, According to His righteousness, And praise the name of Jehovah Most High!
Psm7:18 To the Overseer, `On the Gittith.' A Psalm of David. Jehovah, our Lord, How honourable Thy name in all the earth! Who settest thine honour on the heavens.
