Psalms 7
1 [A meditation by David, which he sang to the LORD, concerning the words of Cush, the Benjamite.] LORD, my God, I take refuge in you. Save me from all those who pursue me, and deliver me,
psalmus David quem cantavit Domino pro verbis Chusi filii Iemini Domine Deus meus in te speravi salvum me fac ex omnibus persequentibus me et libera me
2 lest they tear apart my soul like a lion, ripping it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
nequando rapiat ut leo animam meam dum non est qui redimat neque qui salvum faciat
3 LORD, my God, if I have done this, if there is iniquity in my hands,
Domine Deus meus si feci istud si est iniquitas in manibus meis
4 if I have rewarded evil to him who was at peace with me, or oppressed my enemy without cause,
si reddidi retribuentibus mihi mala decidam merito ab inimicis meis inanis
5 let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it; yes, let him tread my life down to the earth, and lay my glory in the dust. (Selah)
persequatur inimicus animam meam et conprehendat et conculcet in terra vitam meam et gloriam meam in pulverem deducat diapsalma
6 Arise, LORD, in your anger. Lift up yourself against the rage of my adversaries. Awake, my God; you have appointed judgment.
exsurge Domine in ira tua exaltare in finibus inimicorum meorum et exsurge Domine Deus meus in praecepto quod mandasti
7 And let the congregation of the peoples surround you, and rule over them on high.
et synagoga populorum circumdabit te et propter hanc in altum regredere
8 The LORD administers judgment to the peoples. Judge me, LORD, according to my righteousness, and to my integrity that is in me.
Dominus iudicat populos iudica me Domine secundum iustitiam meam et secundum innocentiam meam super me
9 Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end, but establish the righteous. The righteous God tests hearts and minds.
consummetur nequitia peccatorum et diriges iustum et scrutans corda et renes Deus
10 My shield is with God, who saves the upright in heart.
iustum adiutorium meum a Deo qui salvos facit rectos corde
11 God is a righteous judge, yes, a God who has indignation every day.
Deus iudex iustus et fortis et patiens numquid irascitur per singulos dies
12 If a man doesn't relent, he will sharpen his sword; he has bent and strung his bow.
nisi conversi fueritis gladium suum vibrabit arcum suum tetendit et paravit illum
13 He has also prepared for himself deadly weapons. He makes ready his flaming arrows.
et in eo paravit vasa mortis sagittas suas ardentibus effecit
14 Look, he travails with iniquity. Yes, he has conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
ecce parturiit iniustitiam et; concepit dolorem et peperit iniquitatem
15 He has dug a hole, and has fallen into the pit which he made.
lacum aperuit et effodit eum et incidet in foveam quam fecit
16 The trouble he causes shall return to his own head, and his violence shall come down on the crown of his own head.
convertetur dolor eius in caput eius et in verticem ipsius iniquitas eius descendet
17 I will give thanks to the LORD according to his righteousness, and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.
confitebor Domino secundum iustitiam eius et psallam nomini Domini altissimi
