Psalm 7

Young's Literal Translation YLT

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.

2 Lest he tear as a lion my soul, Rending, and there is no deliverer.

3 O Jehovah, my God, if I have done this, If there is iniquity in my hands,

4 If I have done my well-wisher evil, And draw mine adversary without cause,

5 An enemy pursueth my soul, and overtaketh, And treadeth down to the earth my life, And my honour placeth in the dust. Selah.

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:

7 And a company of peoples compass Thee, And over it on high turn Thou back,

8 Jehovah doth judge the peoples; Judge me, O Jehovah, According to my righteousness, And according to mine integrity on me,

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.

10 My shield [is] on God, Saviour of the upright in heart!

11 God [is] a righteous judge, And He is not angry at all times.

12 If [one] turn not, His sword he sharpeneth, His bow he hath trodden -- He prepareth it,

13 Yea, for him He hath prepared Instruments of death, His arrows for burning pursuers He maketh.

14 Lo, he travaileth [with] iniquity, And he hath conceived perverseness, And hath brought forth falsehood.

15 A pit he hath prepared, and he diggeth it, And he falleth into a ditch he maketh.

16 Return doth his perverseness on his head, And on his crown his violence cometh down.

17 I thank Jehovah, According to His righteousness, And praise the name of Jehovah Most High!

Holman Christian Standard Bible CSB

1 Lord my God, I seek refuge in You; save me from all my pursuers and rescue me,

2 or they will tear me like a lion, ripping me apart, with no one to rescue me.

3 Lord my God, if I have done this, if there is injustice on my hands,

4 if I have done harm to one at peace with me or have plundered my adversary without cause,

5 may an enemy pursue and overtake me; may he trample me to the ground and leave my honor in the dust. Selah

6 Rise up, Lord, in Your anger; lift Yourself up against the fury of my adversaries; awake for me; You have ordained a judgment.

7 Let the assembly of peoples gather around You; take Your seat on high over it.

8 The Lord judges the peoples; vindicate me, Lord, according to my righteousness and my integrity.

9 Let the evil of the wicked come to an end, but establish the righteous. The One who examines the thoughts and emotions is a righteous God.

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

11 God is a righteous judge, and a God who executes justice every day.

12 If anyone does not repent, God will sharpen His sword; He has strung His bow and made it ready.

13 He has prepared His deadly weapons; He tips His arrows with fire.

14 See, he is pregnant with evil, conceives trouble, and gives birth to deceit.

15 He dug a pit and hollowed it out, but fell into the hole he had made.

16 His trouble comes back on his own head, and his violence falls on the top of his head.

17 I will thank the Lord for His righteousness; I will sing about the name of the Lord, the Most High.
