ASV_Strong : Psalms 7
1.
2. Lest they tear[H2963] my soul[H5315] like a lion[H738], Rending it in pieces[H6561], while there is none to deliver[H5337].
3. O Jehovah[H3068] my God[H430], if I have done[H6213] this[H3426]; If there be iniquity[H5766] in my hands[H3709];
4. If I have rewarded[H1580] evil[H7451] unto him that was at peace[H7999] with me[H2502]; (Yea, I have delivered him that without cause[H7387] was mine adversary[H6887]😉
5. Let the enemy[H341] pursue[H7291] my soul[H5315], and overtake[H5381] it[H2416]; Yea, let him tread my life down[H7429] to the earth[H776], And lay[H7931] my glory[H3519] in the dust[H6083]. [H5542][[Selah
6. Arise[H6965], O Jehovah[H3068], in thine anger[H639]; Lift up[H5375] thyself against the rage[H5678] of mine adversaries[H6887], And awake[H5782] for me[H6680]; thou hast commanded judgment[H4941].
7. And let the congregation[H5712] of the peoples[H3816] compass thee about[H5437]; And over them return[H7725] thou on high[H4791].
8. Jehovah[H3068] ministereth judgment[H1777] to the peoples[H5971]: Judge[H8199] me[H3068], O Jehovah, according to my righteousness[H6664], and to mine integrity that is in me[H8537].
9. O let the wickedness[H7451] of the wicked[H7563] come to an end[H1584], but establish[H3559] thou the righteous[H6662]: For the righteous[H6662] God[H430] trieth[H974] the minds[H3629] and hearts[H3826].
10. My shield[H4043] is with God[H430], Who saveth[H3467] the upright[H3477] in heart[H3820].
11. God[H430] is a righteous[H6662] judge[H8199], Yea[H410], a God that hath indignation[H2194] every day[H3117].
12. If a man turn[H7725] not[H3913], he will whet his sword[H2719]; He hath bent[H1869] his bow[H7198], and made it ready[H3559].
13. He hath also prepared[H3559] for him the instruments[H3627] of death[H4194]; He maketh[H6466] his arrows[H2671] fiery shafts[H1814].
14. Behold[H2254], he travaileth with iniquity[H205]; Yea[H2029], he hath conceived mischief[H5999], and brought forth[H3205] falsehood[H8267].
15. He hath made[H3738] a pit[H953], and digged[H2658] it[H5307], And is fallen into the ditch[H7845] which he made[H6466].
16. His mischief[H5999] shall return[H7725] upon his own head[H7218], And his violence[H2555] shall come down[H3381] upon his own pate[H6936].
17. I will give thanks[H3034] unto Jehovah[H3068] according to his righteousness[H6664], And will sing praise[H2167] to the name[H8034] of Jehovah[H3068] Most High[H5945].
