Psalms [Praises] 7:7-12

⁷Let the congregation of the peoples surround you. Rule over them on high.

⁸Adonai administers judgment to the peoples. Judge me, Adonai , according to my righteousness, and to my integrity that is in me.

⁹Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end, but establish the upright; their minds and hearts are searched by the righteous God.

¹⁰My shield is with God, who saves the upright in heart.

¹¹God is a righteous judge, yes, a God who has indignation every day.

¹²If a man does not relent, he will sharpen his sword; he has bent and strung his bow.
