Psalms 7 — YLT

7Verse 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.^{Verse 2}Lest he tear as a lion my soul, Rending, and there is no deliverer.^{Verse 3}O Jehovah, my God, if I have done this, If there is iniquity in my hands,^{Verse 4}If I have done my well-wisher evil, And draw mine adversary without cause,^{Verse 5}An enemy pursueth my soul, and overtaketh, And treadeth down to the earth my life, And my honour placeth in the dust. Selah.^{Verse 6}Rise, O Jehovah, in Thine anger, Be lifted up at the wrath of mine adversaries, And awake Thou for me: Judgment Thou hast commanded:^{Verse 7}And a company of peoples compass Thee, And over it on high turn Thou back,^{Verse 8}Jehovah doth judge the peoples; Judge me, O Jehovah, According to my righteousness, And according to mine integrity on me,^{Verse 9}Let, 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.^{Verse 10}My shield [is] on God, Saviour of the upright in heart!^{Verse 11}God [is] a righteous judge, And He is not angry at all times.^{Verse 12}If [one] turn not, His sword he sharpeneth, His bow he hath trodden — He prepareth it,^{Verse 13}Yea, for him He hath prepared Instruments of death, His arrows for burning pursuers He maketh.^{Verse 14}Lo, he travaileth [with] iniquity, And he hath conceived perverseness, And hath brought forth falsehood.^{Verse 15}A pit he hath prepared, and he diggeth it, And he falleth into a ditch he maketh.^{Verse 16}Return doth his perverseness on his head, And on his crown his violence cometh down.^{Verse 17}I thank Jehovah, According to His righteousness, And praise the name of Jehovah Most High!
