Mga Awit 7
Magandang Balita Biblia (with Deuterocanon)
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
New King James Version
Prayer and Praise for Deliverance from Enemies
A (A)Meditation[a] of David, which he sang to the Lord (B)concerning the words of Cush, a Benjamite.
7 O Lord my God, in You I put my trust;
(C)Save me from all those who persecute me;
And deliver me,
2 (D)Lest they tear me like a lion,
(E)Rending me in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
3 O Lord my God, (F)if I have done this:
If there is (G)iniquity in my hands,
4 If I have repaid evil to him who was at peace with me,
Or (H)have plundered my enemy without cause,
5 Let the enemy pursue me and overtake me;
Yes, let him trample my life to the earth,
And lay my honor in the dust. Selah
6 Arise, O Lord, in Your anger;
(I)Lift Yourself up because of the rage of my enemies;
(J)Rise up [b]for me to the judgment You have commanded!
7 So the congregation of the peoples shall surround You;
For their sakes, therefore, return on high.
8 The Lord shall judge the peoples;
(K)Judge me, O Lord, (L)according to my righteousness,
And according to my integrity within me.
9 Oh, let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end,
But establish the just;
(M)For the righteous God tests the hearts and [c]minds.
10 [d]My defense is of God,
Who saves the (N)upright in heart.
11 God is a just judge,
And God is angry with the wicked every day.
12 If he does not turn back,
He will (O)sharpen His sword;
He bends His bow and makes it ready.
13 He also prepares for Himself instruments of death;
He makes His arrows into fiery shafts.
14 (P)Behold, the wicked brings forth iniquity;
Yes, he conceives trouble and brings forth falsehood.
15 He made a pit and dug it out,
(Q)And has fallen into the ditch which he made.
16 (R)His trouble shall return upon his own head,
And his violent dealing shall come down on [e]his own crown.
17 I will praise the Lord according to His righteousness,
And will sing praise to the name of the Lord Most High.

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.

Jubilee Bible 2000
Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto the LORD, concerning the words of Cush the Benjamite.
1 ¶ O LORD my God, in thee I have put my trust: save me from all those that persecute me, and deliver me
2 Lest they take my soul, as a lion dismembers his prey when there is none to deliver.
3 O LORD my God, if I have done this: if there is iniquity in my hands,
4 if I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me, then let my persecutor escape without retribution.
5 Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; let him tread down my life upon the earth and lay my honour in the dust. Selah.
6 Arise, O LORD, in thine anger; lift up thyself because of the rage of mine enemies: and awake the judgment in my favour 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 the integrity that is in me.
9 Let wickedness consume the wicked; but establish the just: for the righteous God is he who tries the hearts and kidneys.
10 ¶ My shield is in God, he who saves the upright in heart.
11 God is he who judges the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.
12 If he does not turn, he will whet his sword; he has bent his bow and made it ready.
13 He has also prepared for him the weapons of death; he ordains his arrows against the persecutors.
14 Behold, he travails with iniquity and has conceived of his own work and brought forth falsehood.
15 He made a pit and deepened it and shall fall into the ditch which he made.
16 His work 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.
