< 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.
For the ignoraunce of Dauid, which he songe to the Lord on the wordis of Ethiopien, the sone of Gemyny. Mi Lord God, Y haue hopid in thee; make thou me saaf fro alle that pursuen me, and delyuere thou me.
2 Lest he should tear to pieces like a lion self my tearing and there not [is] a deliverer.
Lest ony tyme he as a lioun rauysche my soule; the while noon is that ayenbieth, nether that makith saaf.
3 O Yahweh God my if I have done this if there [is] unrighteousness in hands my.
Mi Lord God, if Y dide this thing, if wickidnesse is in myn hondis;
4 If I have repaid [one who] is at peace with me evil and I have rescued! opposer my without cause.
if Y `yeldide to men yeldynge to me yuels, falle Y `bi disseruyng voide fro myn enemyes;
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)
myn enemy pursue my soule, and take, and defoule my lijf in erthe; and brynge my glorie in to dust.
6 Arise! O Yahweh - in anger your raise yourself on [the] furi of opposers my and awake! to me justice you have commanded.
Lord, rise thou vp in thin ire; and be thou reysid in the coostis of myn enemyes.
7 And an assembly of nations may it surround you and over it to the height return!
And, my Lord God, rise thou in the comaundement, which thou `hast comaundid; and the synagoge of puplis schal cumpasse thee.
8 Yahweh let him judge peoples vindicate me O Yahweh according to righteousness my and according to integrity my on me.
And for this go thou ayen an hiy; the Lord demeth puplis. Lord, deme thou me bi my riytfulnesse; and bi myn innocence 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.
The wickidnesse of synneris be endid; and thou, God, sekyng the hertis and reynes, schalt dresse a iust man.
10 Shield my [is] on God a deliverer of [people] upright of heart.
Mi iust help is of the Lord; that makith saaf riytful men in herte.
11 God [is] a judge righteous and God [is] indignant on every day.
The Lord is a iust iuge, stronge and pacient; whether he is wrooth bi alle daies?
12 If not anyone will repent sword his he will sharpen bow his he has bent and he has prepared it.
If ye ben `not conuertid, he schal florische his swerd; he hath bent his bouwe, and made it redi.
13 And for him he has prepared weapons of death arrows his into burning [things] he will make.
And therynne he hath maad redi the vessels of deth; he hath fulli maad his arewis with brennynge thingis.
14 There! he is in labor with wickedness and he conceives mischief and he brings forth falsehood.
Lo! he conseyuede sorewe; he peynfuli brouyte forth vnriytfulnesse, and childide wickidnesse.
15 A pit he digs and he has dug it and he has fallen in [the] pit [which] he made.
He openide a lake, and diggide it out; and he felde in to the dich which he made.
16 It returns mischief his on own head his and on scalp his violence his it comes down.
His sorewe schal be turned in to his heed; and his wickidnesse schal come doun in to his necke.
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 schal knouleche to the Lord bi his riytfulnesse; and Y schal synge to the name of the hiyeste Lord.
