Psalms:7
Seeker Overlay ON
*
O LORD my God ,
in you do I put my trust :
save me from all them that persecute me ,
and deliver me :
*
Lest he tear my soul like a lion ,
rending it in pieces ,
while there is none to deliver .
*
O LORD my God ,
If I have done this ;
if there be iniquity in my hands ;
*
If I have rewarded evil to him that was at peace with me ; (
yes ,
I have delivered him that without cause is my enemy :)
*
Let the enemy persecute my soul ,
and take it ;
yes ,
let him tread down my life on the earth ,
and lay my honor in the dust .
Selah .
*
Arise ,
O LORD ,
in your anger ,
lift up yourself because of the rage of my enemies :
and awake for me to the judgment that you have commanded .
*
So shall the congregation of the people compass you about :
for their sakes therefore return you on high .
*
The LORD shall judge the people :
judge me ,
O LORD ,
according to my righteousness ,
and according to my integrity that is in me .
*
Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end ;
but establish the just :
for the righteous God tries the hearts and reins .
*
My defense is of God ,
which saves the upright in heart .
*
God judges the righteous ,
and God is angry with the wicked every day .
*
If he turn not ,
he will whet his sword ;
he has bent his bow ,
and made it ready .
*
He has also prepared for him the instruments of death ;
he ordains his arrows against the persecutors .
*
Behold ,
he travails with iniquity ,
and has conceived mischief ,
and brought forth falsehood .
*
He made a pit ,
and dig it ,
and is fallen into the ditch which he made .
*
His mischief shall return on his own head ,
and his violent dealing shall come down on his own pate .
*
I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness :
and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high .
