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.
Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto the LORD, concerning the words of Cush the Benjamite. O LORD my God, in thee do 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 he tear my soul like a lion, rending [it] in pieces, while [there is] none to deliver.
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; 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 rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me; (yea, I have delivered him that without cause is mine enemy: )
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 persecute my soul, and take [it; ] yea, let him tread down my life upon the earth, and lay mine honour in the dust. (Selah)
6 Arise! O Yahweh - in anger your raise yourself on [the] furi of opposers my and awake! to me justice you have commanded.
Arise, O LORD, in thine anger, lift up thyself because of the rage of mine enemies: and awake for me [to] the judgment [that] thou hast commanded.
7 And an assembly of nations may it surround you and over it to the height return!
So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about: for their sakes therefore 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 shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity [that is] 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.
Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.
10 Shield my [is] on God a deliverer of [people] upright of heart.
My defence [is] of God, which saveth the upright in heart.
11 God [is] a judge righteous and God [is] indignant on every day.
God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry [with the wicked] every day.
12 If not anyone will repent sword his he will sharpen bow his he has bent and he has prepared it.
If he turn not, he will whet 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.
He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors.
14 There! he is in labor with wickedness and he conceives mischief and he brings forth falsehood.
Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
15 A pit he digs and he has dug it and he has fallen in [the] pit [which] he made.
He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch [which] he made.
16 It returns mischief his on own head his and on scalp his violence his it comes down.
His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate.
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 praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high.
