< 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.
2 Lest he should tear to pieces like a lion self my tearing and there not [is] a deliverer.
3 O Yahweh God my if I have done this if there [is] unrighteousness in hands my.
4 If I have repaid [one who] is at peace with me evil and I have rescued! opposer my 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)
6 Arise! O Yahweh - in anger your raise yourself on [the] furi of opposers my and awake! to me justice you have commanded.
7 And an assembly of nations may it surround you and over it to the height return!
8 Yahweh let him judge peoples vindicate me O Yahweh according to righteousness my and according to integrity my 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.
10 Shield my [is] on God a deliverer of [people] upright of heart.
11 God [is] a judge righteous and God [is] indignant on every day.
12 If not anyone will repent sword his he will sharpen bow his he has bent and he has prepared it.
13 And for him he has prepared weapons of death arrows his into burning [things] he will make.
14 There! he is in labor with wickedness and he conceives mischief and he brings forth falsehood.
15 A pit he digs and he has dug it and he has fallen in [the] pit [which] he made.
16 It returns mischief his on own head his and on scalp his violence his it comes down.
17 I will give thanks to Yahweh according to righteousness his and I will sing praise to [the] name of Yahweh [the] Most High.
