Chapter 7

1


 

  The psalm of David which he sung to the Lord for the words of Chusi the son of Jemini. [2 Kings 16.]  

 

 

--

2


 

  O Lord my God, in thee have I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me.  

 

 

--

3


 

  Lest at any time he seize upon my soul like a lion, while there is no one to redeem me, nor to save.  

 

 

--

4


 

  O Lord my God, if I have done this thing, if there be iniquity in my hands:  

 

 

--

5


 

  If I have rendered to them that repaid me evils, let me deservedly fall empty before my enemies.  

 

 

--

6


 

  Let the enemy pursue my soul, and take it, and tread down my life on the earth, and bring down my glory to the dust.  

 

 

--

7


 

  Rise up, O Lord, in thy anger: and be thou exalted in the borders of my enemies. And arise, O Lord my God, in the precept which thou hast commanded:  

 

 

--

8


 

  and a congregation of people shall surround thee. And for their sakes return thou on high.  

 

 

--

9


 

  The Lord judgeth the people. Judge me, O Lord, according to my justice, and according to my innocence in me.  

 

 

--

10


 

  The wickedness of sinners shall be brought to nought: and thou shalt direct the just: the searcher of hearts and reins is God.  

 

 

--

11


 

  Just is my help from the Lord: who saveth the upright of heart.  

 

 

--

12


 

  God is a just judge, strong and patient: is he angry every day?  

 

 

--

13


 

  Except you will be converted, he will brandish his sword: he hath bent his bow and made it ready.  

 

 

--

14


 

  And in it he hath prepared the instruments of death, he hath made ready his arrows for them that burn.  

 

 

--

15


 

  Behold he hath been in labour with injustice; he hath conceived sorrow, and brought forth iniquity.  

 

 

--

16


 

  He hath opened a pit and dug it; and he is fallen into the hole he made.  

 

 

--

17


 

  His sorrow shall be turned on his own head: and his iniquity shall comedown upon his crown.  

 

 

--

18


 

  I will give glory to the Lord according to his justice: and will sing to the name of the Lord the most high.
