< 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.
A SHIGGAION OF DAVID, THAT HE SUNG TO YHWH CONCERNING THE WORDS OF CUSH, A BENJAMITE. O YHWH, my God, in You I have trusted, Save me from all my pursuers, 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 as a lion, Tearing, and there is no deliverer.
3 O Yahweh God my if I have done this if there [is] unrighteousness in hands my.
O YHWH, my God, if I have done this, If there is 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 done my well-wisher evil, And draw my adversary without cause,
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)
[Then] an enemy pursues my soul, and overtakes, And treads down my life to the earth, And places my glory 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.
Rise, O YHWH, in Your anger, Be lifted up at the wrath of my adversaries, And awake Yourself for me: You have commanded judgment.
7 And an assembly of nations may it surround you and over it to the height return!
And a congregation of peoples surround You, And over it turn back on high.
8 Yahweh let him judge peoples vindicate me O Yahweh according to righteousness my and according to integrity my on me.
YHWH judges the peoples; Judge me, O YHWH, According to my righteousness, And according to my integrity [that is] on 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.
Please let the evil of the wicked be ended, And establish the righteous, And a trier of hearts and reins is the righteous God.
10 Shield my [is] on God a deliverer of [people] upright of heart.
My shield [is] on God, Savior of the upright in heart!
11 God [is] a judge righteous and God [is] indignant on every day.
God [is] judging right, And He is not angry at all times.
12 If not anyone will repent sword his he will sharpen bow his he has bent and he has prepared it.
If [one] does not turn, He sharpens His sword, He has bent His bow [and] He prepares it,
13 And for him he has prepared weapons of death arrows his into burning [things] he will make.
Indeed, He has prepared for Himself Instruments of death, He makes His arrows for burning pursuers.
14 There! he is in labor with wickedness and he conceives mischief and he brings forth falsehood.
Behold, he travails [with] iniquity, And he has conceived perverseness, And has brought forth falsehood.
15 A pit he digs and he has dug it and he has fallen in [the] pit [which] he made.
He has prepared a pit, and he digs it, And he falls into a ditch he makes.
16 It returns mischief his on own head his and on scalp his violence his it comes down.
His perverseness returns on his head, And his violence comes down on 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 thank YHWH, According to His righteousness, And I praise the Name of YHWH Most High!
