Psalms Chapter 7 (NIV)
undefined
Psalm 7A shiggaion of David, which he sang to the Lord concerning Cush, a Benjamite.O Lord my God, I take refuge in you;save and deliver me from all who pursue me,
undefined
or they will tear me like a lionand rip me to pieces with no one to rescue me.
undefined
O Lord my God, if I have done thisand there is guilt on my hands—
undefined
if I have done evil to him who is at peace with meor without cause have robbed my foe—
undefined
then let my enemy pursue and overtake me;let him trample my life to the groundand make me sleep in the dust. Selah
undefined
Arise, O Lord, in your anger;rise up against the rage of my enemies.Awake, my God; decree justice.
undefined
Let the assembled peoples gather around you.Rule over them from on high;
undefined
let the Lord judge the peoples.Judge me, O Lord, according to my righteousness,according to my integrity, O Most High.
undefined
O righteous God,who searches minds and hearts,bring to an end the violence of the wickedand make the righteous secure.
undefined
My shield is God Most High,who saves the upright in heart.
undefined
God is a righteous judge,a God who expresses his wrath every day.
undefined
If he does not relent,he will sharpen his sword;he will bend and string his bow.
undefined
He has prepared his deadly weapons;he makes ready his flaming arrows.
undefined
He who is pregnant with eviland conceives trouble gives birth to disillusionment.
undefined
He who digs a hole and scoops it outfalls into the pit he has made.
undefined
The trouble he causes recoils on himself;his violence comes down on his own head.
undefined
I will give thanks to the Lord because of his righteousnessand will sing praise to the name of the Lord Most High.
