Psalms 7:1-11

¹'The Erring One,' by David, that he sung to Jehovah concerning the words of Cush a Benjamite. O Jehovah, my God, in Thee I have trusted, Save me from all my pursuers, and deliver me.

²Lest he tear as a lion my soul, Rending, and there is no deliverer.

³O Jehovah, my God, if I have done this, If there is iniquity in my hands,

⁴If I have done my well-wisher evil, And draw mine adversary without cause,

⁵An enemy pursueth my soul, and overtaketh, And treadeth down to the earth my life, And my honour placeth in the dust. Selah.

⁶Rise, O Jehovah, in Thine anger, Be lifted up at the wrath of mine adversaries, And awake Thou for me: Judgment Thou hast commanded:

⁷And a company of peoples compass Thee, And over it on high turn Thou back,

⁸Jehovah doth judge the peoples; Judge me, O Jehovah, According to my righteousness, And according to mine integrity on me,

⁹Let, I pray Thee be ended the evil of the wicked, And establish Thou the righteous, And a trier of hearts and reins is the righteous God.

¹⁰My shield is on God, Saviour of the upright in heart!

¹¹God is a righteous judge, And He is not angry at all times.
