< 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.
Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto Jehovah, concerning the words of Cush a Benjamite. O Jehovah my God, in thee do I take refuge: Save me from all them that pursue me, and deliver me,
2 Lest he should tear to pieces like a lion self my tearing and there not [is] a deliverer.
Lest they tear my soul like a lion, Rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
3 O Yahweh God my if I have done this if there [is] unrighteousness in hands my.
O Jehovah my God, if I have done this; If there be iniquity in my hands;
4 If I have repaid [one who] is at peace with me evil and I have rescued! opposer my without cause.
If I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me (Yea, I have delivered him that without cause was mine adversary);
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)
Let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it; Yea, let him tread my life down to the earth, And lay my glory in the dust. (Selah)
6 Arise! O Yahweh - in anger your raise yourself on [the] furi of opposers my and awake! to me justice you have commanded.
Arise, O Jehovah, in thine anger; Lift up thyself against the rage of mine adversaries, And awake for me; thou hast commanded judgment.
7 And an assembly of nations may it surround you and over it to the height return!
And let the congregation of the peoples compass thee about; And over them return thou on high.
8 Yahweh let him judge peoples vindicate me O Yahweh according to righteousness my and according to integrity my on me.
Jehovah ministereth judgment to the peoples: Judge me, O Jehovah, according to my righteousness, and to mine integrity that is in 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.
Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end, but establish thou the righteous: For the righteous God trieth the minds and hearts.
10 Shield my [is] on God a deliverer of [people] upright of heart.
My shield is with God, Who saveth the upright in heart.
11 God [is] a judge righteous and God [is] indignant on every day.
God is a righteous judge, Yea, a God that hath indignation every day.
12 If not anyone will repent sword his he will sharpen bow his he has bent and he has prepared it.
If a man turn not, he will whet his sword; He hath bent his bow, and made it ready;
13 And for him he has prepared weapons of death arrows his into burning [things] he will make.
He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; He maketh his arrows fiery [shafts].
14 There! he is in labor with wickedness and he conceives mischief and he brings forth falsehood.
Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; Yea, he hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
15 A pit he digs and he has dug it and he has fallen in [the] pit [which] he made.
He hath made a pit, and digged it, And is fallen into the ditch which he made.
16 It returns mischief his on own head his and on scalp his violence his it comes down.
His mischief shall return upon his own head, And his violence shall come down upon his own pate.
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 will give thanks unto Jehovah according to his righteousness, And will sing praise to the name of Jehovah Most High.
