Psalms 7
1 A Shiggaion of David which he sang to Yahweh on [the] words of Cush a Ben-jaminite. O Yahweh God my in you I have sought refuge save me from all pursuers my and deliver me.
The psalm of David which he sung to the Lord for the words of Chusi the son of Jemini. O Lord my God, in thee have I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me.
2 Lest he should tear to pieces like a lion self my tearing and there not [is] a deliverer.
Lest at any time he seize upon my soul like a lion, while there is no one to redeem me, nor to save.
3 O Yahweh God my if I have done this if there [is] unrighteousness in hands my.
O Lord my God, if I have done this thing, if there be iniquity in my hands:
4 If I have repaid [one who] is at peace with me evil and I have rescued! opposer my without cause.
If I have rendered to them that repaid me evils, let me deservedly fall empty before my enemies.
5 May he pursue an enemy - life my and may he overtake [it] and he may trample to the earth life my and honor my - to the dust may he lay (Selah)
Let the enemy pursue my soul, and take it, and tread down my life on the earth, and bring down my glory to the dust.
6 Arise! O Yahweh - in anger your raise yourself on [the] furi of opposers my and awake! to me justice you have commanded.
Rise up, O Lord, in thy anger: and be thou exalted in the borders of my enemies. And arise, O Lord my God, in the precept which thou hast commanded:
7 And an assembly of nations may it surround you and over it to the height return!
And a congregation of people shall surround thee. And for their sakes return thou on high.
8 Yahweh let him judge peoples vindicate me O Yahweh according to righteousness my and according to integrity my on me.
The Lord judgeth the people. Judge me, O Lord, according to my justice, and according to my innocence in me.
9 May it come to an end please [the] evil of - wicked [people] and may you establish [the] righteous and [who] tests hearts and kidneys O God righteous.
The wickedness of sinners shall be brought to nought: and thou shalt direct the just: the searcher of hearts and reins is God.
10 Shield my [is] on God a deliverer of [people] upright of heart.
Just is my help from the Lord: who saveth the upright of heart.
11 God [is] a judge righteous and God [is] indignant on every day.
God is a just judge, strong and patient: is he angry every day?
12 If not anyone will repent sword his he will sharpen bow his he has bent and he has prepared it.
Except you will be converted, he will brandish his sword: he hath bent his bow and made it ready.
13 And for him he has prepared weapons of death arrows his into burning [things] he will make.
And in it he hath prepared the instruments of death, he hath made ready his arrows for them that burn.
14 There! he is in labor with wickedness and he conceives mischief and he brings forth falsehood.
Behold he hath been in labour with injustice; he hath conceived sorrow, and brought forth iniquity.
15 A pit he digs and he has dug it and he has fallen in [the] pit [which] he made.
He hath opened a pit and dug it; and he is fallen into the hole he made.
16 It returns mischief his on own head his and on scalp his violence his it comes down.
His sorrow shall be turned on his own head: and his iniquity shall comedown upon his crown.
17 I will give thanks to Yahweh according to righteousness his and I will sing praise to [the] name of Yahweh [the] Most High.
I will give glory to the Lord according to his justice: and will sing to the name of the Lord the most high.
