Mga Awit 7
Magandang Balita Biblia
Panalangin Upang Magtamo ng Katarungan
Shigaion[a] ni David na kanyang inawit kay Yahweh; patungkol kay Cus, na isang Benjaminita.
7 O Yahweh, aking Diyos, sa iyo ako lumalapit,
iligtas mo ako sa mga taong sa aki'y tumutugis,
2 kundi, sila'y parang leon na lalapa sa akin
kung walang magliligtas, ako nga ay papatayin.
3 O Yahweh, aking Diyos, kung ako ma'y nagkasala,
at kung aking mga kamay ay puminsala sa iba,
4 kung ako ay naging taksil sa tapat kong kaibigan,
kung ako po'y naminsala o nang-api ng kaaway,
5 payag akong hulihin, patayin kung kailangan,
iwan akong walang buhay at sa lupa'y mahandusay. (Selah)[b]
6 O Yahweh, bumangon ka, puksain mo ang kaaway,
ako'y iyong ipagtanggol sa malupit nilang kamay!
Gumising ka't sagipin mo, ako ngayon ay tulungan,
dahil ang hangad mo'y maghari ang katarungan.
7 Tipunin mo sa iyong piling ang lahat ng mga bansa,
at mula sa trono sa kaitaasan, ikaw, Yahweh, ang mamahala.
8 Sa lahat ng mga bayan, ikaw ang hukom na dakila,
humatol ka sa panig ko sapagkat ako'y taong tapat.
9 Ikaw(A) ay isang Diyos na matuwid,
batid mo ang aming damdamin at pag-iisip;
sugpuin mo ang gawain ng masasama,
at ang mabubuti'y bigyan mo ng gantimpala.
10 Ang Diyos ang aking sanggalang;
inililigtas niya ang may pusong makatarungan.
11 Ang Diyos ay isang hukom na makatarungan,
at nagpaparusa sa masama sa bawat araw.
12 Kung di sila magbabago sa masasama nilang gawa,
ang tabak ng Diyos ay kanyang ihahasa;
pati ang kanyang pana ay kanyang ihahanda.
13 Mga pamatay na sandata ay kanyang itatakda,
kanya ring iuumang ang mga palasong nagbabaga.
14 Pagmasdan mo ang masama, sa baluktot niyang isip,
ipinaglilihi niya ang kalokohan at ipinanganganak niya ang kasamaan.
15 Humuhukay ng patibong para sa ibang tao,
subalit siya rin mismo ang nahuhulog dito.
16 Siya rin ang may gawa sa parusang tinatanggap,
sa sariling karahasan, siya ngayo'y naghihirap.
17 Pasasalamatan ko si Yahweh sa kanyang katarungan,
aawitan ko ng papuri ang Kataas-taasan niyang ngalan.

Psalm 7
English Standard Version
In You Do I Take Refuge
A (A)Shiggaion[a] of David, which he sang to the Lord concerning the words of Cush, a Benjaminite.
7 O Lord my God, in you do I (B)take refuge;
(C)save me from all my pursuers and deliver me,
2 lest like (D)a lion they tear my soul apart,
rending it in pieces, with (E)none to deliver.
3 O Lord my God, (F)if I have done this,
if there is (G)wrong in my hands,
4 if I have repaid (H)my friend[b] with evil
or (I)plundered my enemy without cause,
5 let the enemy pursue my soul and overtake it,
and let him (J)trample my life to the ground
and lay my glory in the dust. Selah
6 (K)Arise, O Lord, in your anger;
(L)lift yourself up against the fury of my enemies;
(M)awake for me; you have appointed a judgment.
7 Let the assembly of the peoples be gathered about you;
over it return on high.
8 The Lord (N)judges the peoples;
(O)judge me, O Lord, according to my righteousness
and according to the integrity that is in me.
9 Oh, let the evil of the wicked come to an end,
and may you establish the righteous—
you who (P)test (Q)the minds and hearts,[c]
O righteous God!
10 My shield is (R)with God,
who saves (S)the upright in heart.
11 God is (T)a righteous judge,
and a God who feels (U)indignation every day.
12 If a man[d] does not repent, God[e] will (V)whet his sword;
he has (W)bent and (X)readied his bow;
13 he has prepared for him his deadly weapons,
making his (Y)arrows (Z)fiery shafts.
14 Behold, the wicked man (AA)conceives evil
and is (AB)pregnant with mischief
and gives birth to lies.
15 He makes (AC)a pit, digging it out,
and falls into the hole that he has made.
16 His (AD)mischief returns upon his own head,
and on his own skull his violence descends.
17 I will give to the Lord the thanks due to his righteousness,
and I will (AE)sing praise to the name of the Lord, the Most High.

Psalm 7
King James Version
7 O Lord my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me:
2 Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
3 O Lord my God, If I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands;
4 If I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me; (yea, I have delivered him that without cause is mine enemy:)
5 Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; yea, let him tread down my life upon the earth, and lay mine honour in the dust. Selah.
6 Arise, O Lord, in thine anger, lift up thyself because of the rage of mine enemies: and awake for me to the judgment that thou hast commanded.
7 So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about: for their sakes therefore return thou on high.
8 The Lord shall judge the people: judge me, O Lord, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me.
9 Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.
10 My defence is of God, which saveth the upright in heart.
11 God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.
12 If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready.
13 He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors.
14 Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
15 He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.
16 His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate.
17 I will praise the Lord according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the Lord most high.
Psaumes 7
La Bible du Semeur
Rends-moi justice contre des accusations injustes !
7 Complainte de David qu’il chanta au Seigneur au sujet de ce que Koush[a] le Benjaminite avait dit.
2 O Eternel, mon Dieu, ╵en toi, j’ai un refuge :
viens, sauve-moi ╵de ceux qui me poursuivent ! ╵Viens donc me délivrer !
3 Sinon, comme des lions[b], ╵ils vont me déchirer,
je serai mis en pièces ╵sans que personne ╵ne vienne à mon secours.
4 O Eternel, mon Dieu, ╵si j’ai agi ╵comme on me le reproche,
si j’ai commis une injustice,
5 si j’ai causé du tort ╵à mon ami,
si, sans raison, ╵j’ai dépouillé mon adversaire[c],
6 alors, qu’un ennemi ╵se mette à me poursuivre,
qu’il me rattrape et me piétine,
qu’il traîne mon honneur ╵dans la poussière.
Pause
7 O Eternel, ╵dans ta colère, lève-toi,
dresse-toi contre la furie ╵de ceux qui sont mes adversaires
entre en action en ma faveur, ╵toi qui as établi le droit.
8 Que les peuples s’assemblent ╵autour de toi,
et toi, domine-les ╵des hauteurs de ton trône.
9 O Eternel, ╵toi le juge des peuples,
rends-moi justice, ╵et agis selon ma droiture !
Qu’il me soit fait ╵selon mon innocence !
10 Mets donc un terme ╵aux méfaits des méchants,
et affermis le juste,
toi qui es juste ╵et qui sondes les cœurs[d] ╵et les désirs secrets.
11 Dieu est mon bouclier.
Il sauve qui a le cœur droit.
12 Dieu est un juste juge,
qui, chaque jour, ╵fait sentir son indignation
13 à qui ne revient pas à lui.
L’ennemi[e] aiguise son glaive,
il tend son arc ╵et se met à viser.
14 Il se prépare ╵des armes meurtrières,
et il apprête ╵des flèches enflammées[f].
15 Il conçoit des méfaits,
porte en son sein ╵de quoi répandre la misère, ╵et il accouche de la fausseté.
16 Il creuse en terre ╵un trou profond[g],
mais, dans la fosse qu’il a faite, ╵c’est lui qui tombera.
17 Son mauvais coup ╵se retournera contre lui,
et sa violence ╵lui retombera sur la tête.
18 Je louerai l’Eternel ╵pour sa justice,
je célébrerai par des chants ╵le Dieu très-haut.
