< Psalms 7 >

1 Shiggaion of David, which he sang to the LORD, concerning the words of Cush the Benjamite. O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me:
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 tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
Lest he should tear to pieces like a lion self my tearing and there not [is] a deliverer.
3 O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there is iniquity in my hands;
O Yahweh God my if I have done this if there [is] unrighteousness in hands my.
4 If I have rewarded evil to him that was at peace with me; (yea, I have delivered him that without cause is my enemy: )
If I have repaid [one who] is at peace with me evil and I have rescued! opposer my without cause.
5 Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; yea, let him tread down my life upon the earth, and lay my honour in the dust. (Selah)
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 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.
Arise! O Yahweh - in anger your raise yourself on [the] furi of opposers my and awake! to me justice you have commanded.
7 So shall the congregation of the people surround thee: for their sakes therefore return thou on high.
And an assembly of nations may it surround you and over it to the height return!
8 The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to my integrity that is in me.
Yahweh let him judge peoples vindicate me O Yahweh according to righteousness my and according to integrity my on me.
9 O let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.
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 My defence is from God, who saveth the upright in heart.
Shield my [is] on God a deliverer of [people] upright of heart.
11 God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.
God [is] a judge righteous and God [is] indignant on every day.
12 If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready.
If not anyone will repent sword his he will sharpen bow his he has bent and he has prepared it.
13 He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors.
And for him he has prepared weapons of death arrows his into burning [things] he will make.
14 Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
There! he is in labor with wickedness and he conceives mischief and he brings forth falsehood.
15 He made a pit, and dug it, and hath fallen into the ditch which he made.
A pit he digs and he has dug it and he has fallen in [the] pit [which] he made.
16 His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon the crown of his head.
It returns mischief his on own head his and on scalp his violence his it comes down.
17 I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high.
I will give thanks to Yahweh according to righteousness his and I will sing praise to [the] name of Yahweh [the] Most High.
