The Book of Psalms
7:1 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 be iniquity in my
hands;
7:4 If I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me; (yea,
I have delivered him that without cause is mine enemy:)
7:5 Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; yea, let him tread
down my life upon the earth, and lay mine honour in the dust. Selah.
7:6 Arise, O LORD, in thine anger, lift up thyself because of the rage
of mine enemies: and awake for me to the judgment that thou hast
commanded.
7:7 So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about: 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 mine 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 defence is of God, which 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 is 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.
