WEB Psalms 7 Chapter
7:1
Shiggaion of David, which he sang to the LORD, concerning the words of Cush the Benjaminite. O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me:
7:2
Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending [it] in pieces, while [there is] none to deliver.
7:3
O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there is iniquity in my hands;
7:4
If I have rewarded evil to him that was at peace with me; (yes, I have delivered him that without cause is my enemy:)
7:5
Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take [it]; yes, let him tread down my life upon the earth, and lay my honor in the dust. Selah.
7:6
Arise, O LORD, in thy anger, lift up thyself because of the rage of my enemies: and awake for me [to] the judgment [that] thou hast commanded.
7:7
So shall the congregation of the people encompass thee: for their sakes therefore return thou on high.
7:8
The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to my integrity [that is] in me.
7:9
Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.
7:10
My defense [is] from God, who saveth the upright in heart.
7:11
God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry [with the wicked] every day.
7:12
If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready.
7:13
He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors.
7:14
Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
7:15
He made a pit, and digged it, and hath fallen into the ditch [which] he made.
7:16
His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate.
7:17
I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high.
