- Psalm 7 A shiggaion [1] of David, which he sang to the LORD concerning Cush, a Benjamite.
- 1
- O LORD my God, I take refuge in you; save and deliver me from all who pursue me,
- 2
- or they will tear me like a lion and rip me to pieces with no one to rescue me.
- 3
- O LORD my God, if I have done this and there is guilt on my hands--
- 4
- if I have done evil to him who is at peace with me or without cause have robbed my foe--
- 5
- then let my enemy pursue and overtake me; let him trample my life to the ground and make me sleep in the dust. Selah
- 6
- Arise, O LORD, in your anger; rise up against the rage of my enemies. Awake, my God; decree justice.
- 7
- Let the assembled peoples gather around you. Rule over them from on high;
- 8
- let the LORD judge the peoples. Judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, according to my integrity, O Most High.
- 9
- O righteous God, who searches minds and hearts, bring to an end the violence of the wicked and make the righteous secure.
- 10
- My shield [2] is God Most High, who saves the upright in heart.
- 11
- God is a righteous judge, a God who expresses his wrath every day.
- 12
- If he does not relent, he [3] will sharpen his sword; he will bend and string his bow.
- 13
- He has prepared his deadly weapons; he makes ready his flaming arrows.
- 14
- He who is pregnant with evil and conceives trouble gives birth to disillusionment.
- 15
- He who digs a hole and scoops it out falls into the pit he has made.
- 16
- The trouble he causes recoils on himself; his violence comes down on his own head.
- 17
- I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.
