7Let the assembly of the nations compass thee about, And on their account return to the height!
8The LORD judgeth the nations; Judge me, O LORD! according to my righteousness, And requite me according to my integrity!
9Oh, let the wickedness of the wicked be at an end; But establish the righteous! For the righteous God trieth the heart and the reins.
10My shield is with God, Who saveth the upright in heart.
11God is a righteous judge, And a God who is angry every day.
12If he do not desist, He sharpeneth his sword; He bendeth his bow, and maketh it ready;
