­PSA 7:1  O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that

 persecute me, and deliver me:

 

­PSA 7:2  Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is

 none to deliver.

 

­PSA 7:3  O LORD my God, If I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands;

 

­PSA 7:4  If I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me; (yea, I

 have delivered him that without cause is mine enemy:)

 

­PSA 7:5  Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; yea, let him tread down

 my life upon the earth, and lay mine honour in the dust. Selah.

 

­PSA 7:6  Arise, O LORD, in thine anger, lift up thyself because of the rage of

 mine enemies: and awake for me to the judgment that thou hast commanded.

 

­PSA 7:7  So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about: for their

 sakes therefore return thou on high.

 

­PSA 7:8  The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according to my

 righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me.

 

­PSA 7:9  Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the

 just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.

 

­PSA 7:10  My defence is of God, which saveth the upright in heart.

 

­PSA 7:11  God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every

 day.

 

­PSA 7:12  If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and

 made it ready.

 

­PSA 7:13  He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth

 his arrows against the persecutors.

 

­PSA 7:14  Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and

 brought forth falsehood.

 

­PSA 7:15  He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he

 made.

 

­PSA 7:16  His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing

 shall come down upon his own pate.

 

­PSA 7:17  I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing

 praise to the name of the LORD most high.
