Psalm 7:1-9
Psalm 7
A shiggaion of David. He sang it to the Lord about Cush, who was from the tribe of Benjamin.
Lord my God, I go to you for safety.
Help me. Save me from all those who are chasing me.
If you don’t, they will tear me apart as if they were lions.
They will rip me to pieces so that no one can save me.
Lord my God, suppose I have done something wrong.
Suppose I am guilty.
Or I have done evil to my friend.
Or I have robbed my enemy without any reason.
Then let my enemy chase me and catch me.
Let him stomp me into the ground.
Let him bury me in the dust.
Lord, rise up in your anger.
Rise up against the great anger of my enemies.
My God, wake up. Command that the right thing be done.
Let all the people of the earth gather around you.
Rule over them from your throne in heaven.
Lord, judge all people.
Lord, show that I have done what is right.
Most High God, remember that I am honest.
God, you always do what is right.
You look deep down inside the hearts and minds of people.
Bring to an end the terrible things sinful people do.
Make godly people safe.
