Psalm 7:4-6
The Voice

4 If I have mistreated a friend,
    or if I have stolen from an adversary without just cause,
5 Then let my enemy come after me and catch me,
    stomping me into the ground, ending my life,
    and grinding my honor into the dirt.

[pause][a]

6 Arise, O Eternal One, inflamed by Your anger.
    Come and counter the rage of my adversaries;
    open Your eyes, my God; hear my plea for justice once and for all.

    rise up against the rage of my enemies.(F)
