Verse Numbers
A shiggaion of David, which he sang to the LORD concerning Cush, a Benjamite.
1
[a]
[b]
LORD my God, I take refuge in you; save and deliver me from all who pursue me,
2
or they will tear me apart like a lion and rip me to pieces with no one to rescue me.
3
LORD my God, if I have done this and there is guilt on my hands—
4
if I have repaid my ally with evil or without cause have robbed my foe—
5
then let my enemy pursue and overtake me; let him trample my life to the ground and make me sleep in the dust.
[c]
6
Arise, LORD, in your anger; rise up against the rage of my enemies. Awake, my God; decree justice.
