Psalms 7:1-9

1 Lord my God, I trust in you for protection. Save me and rescue me from those who are chasing me.
2 Otherwise, like a lion they will tear me apart. They will rip me to pieces, and no one can save me.
3 Lord my God, what have I done? Have my hands done something wrong?
4 Have I done wrong to my friend or stolen without reason from my enemy?
5 If I have, let my enemy chase me and capture me. Let him trample me into the dust and bury me in the ground.Selah
6 Lord, rise up in your anger; stand up against my enemies' anger. Get up and demand fairness.
7 Gather the nations around you and rule them from above.
8 Lord, judge the people. Lord, defend me because I am right, because I have done no wrong, God Most High.
9 God, you do what is right. You know our thoughts and feelings. Stop those wicked actions done by evil people, and help those who do what is right.
