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.

Psalm 7[a]
A shiggaion[b](A) of David, which he sang to the Lord concerning Cush, a Benjamite.
1 Lord my God, I take refuge(B) in you;
save and deliver me(C) from all who pursue me,(D)
2 or they will tear me apart like a lion(E)
and rip me to pieces with no one to rescue(F) me.
3 Lord my God, if I have done this
and there is guilt on my hands(G)—
4 if I have repaid my ally with evil
or without cause(H) have robbed my foe—
5 then let my enemy pursue and overtake(I) me;
let him trample my life to the ground(J)
and make me sleep in the dust.[c](K)
6 Arise,(L) Lord, in your anger;
rise up against the rage of my enemies.(M)
Awake,(N) my God; decree justice.
7 Let the assembled peoples gather around you,
while you sit enthroned over them on high.(O)
8 Let the Lord judge(P) the peoples.
Vindicate me, Lord, according to my righteousness,(Q)
according to my integrity,(R) O Most High.(S)
9 Bring to an end the violence of the wicked
and make the righteous secure—(T)
you, the righteous God(U)
who probes minds and hearts.(V)
10 My shield[d](W) is God Most High,
who saves the upright in heart.(X)
11 God is a righteous judge,(Y)
a God who displays his wrath(Z) every day.
12 If he does not relent,(AA)
he[e] will sharpen his sword;(AB)
he will bend and string his bow.(AC)
13 He has prepared his deadly weapons;
he makes ready his flaming arrows.(AD)

Ang Biblia (1978)
Tinawagan ang Panginoon upang ipagtanggol ang mangaawit. Sigaion ni David na inawit niya sa Panginoon, ukol sa mga salita ni Cus na Benjamita.
7 Oh Panginoon kong Dios, (A)sa iyo nanganganlong ako.
(B)Iligtas mo ako sa lahat na nagsisihabol sa akin, at palayain mo ako:
2 Baka lurayin nila na gaya ng leon ang aking kaluluwa,
(C)Na lurayin ito, habang walang magligtas.
3 Oh Panginoon kong Dios, (D)kung ginawa ko ito;
Kung may kasamaan (E)sa aking mga kamay;
4 Kung ako'y gumanti ng kasamaan sa kaniya na may kapayapaan sa akin;
(Oo, (F)aking pinawalan siya, na walang anomang kadahilanan ay naging aking kaaway:)
5 Habulin ng kaaway ang aking kaluluwa, at abutan;
Oo, yapakan niya ang aking kaluluwa sa lupa,
At ilagay ang aking kaluwalhatian sa alabok. (Selah)
6 Ikaw ay bumangon, Oh Panginoon, sa iyong galit,
(G)Magpakataas ka laban sa poot ng aking mga kaaway;
At (H)gumising ka dahil sa akin; ikaw ay nagutos ng kahatulan.
7 At ligirin ka ng kapisanan ng mga bayan sa palibot:
At sila'y pihitan mong nasa mataas ka.
8 Ang panginoo'y nangangasiwa ng kahatulan sa mga bayan:
(I)Iyong hatulan ako, Oh Panginoon, ayon sa aking katuwiran, at sa aking pagtatapat na nasa akin.
9 Oh wakasan ang kasamaan ng masama, ngunit itatag mo ang matuwid;
(J)Sapagka't sinubok ng matuwid na Dios (K)ang mga pagiisip at ang mga puso.
10 Ang aking kalasag ay sa Dios.
Na nagliligtas ng matuwid sa puso.
11 Ang Dios ay matuwid na hukom,
Oo, Dios na may galit araw-araw.
12 Kung ang tao ay hindi magbalik-loob, kaniyang (L)ihahasa ang kaniyang tabak;
Kaniyang iniakma ang kaniyang busog, at inihanda.
13 Inihanda rin naman niya ang mga kasangkapan ng kamatayan;
Kaniyang pinapagniningas ang kaniyang mga pana.
14 (M)Narito, siya'y nagdaramdam ng kasamaan;
Oo, siya'y naglihi ng kasamaan, at nanganak ng kabulaanan.
15 Siya'y gumawa ng balon, at hinukay,
(N)At nahulog sa hukay na kaniyang ginawa.
16 (O)Ang kaniyang gawang masama ay magbabalik sa kaniyang sariling ulo,
At ang kaniyang pangdadahas ay babagsak sa kaniyang sariling bunbunan.
17 Ako'y magpapasalamat sa Panginoon, ayon sa kaniyang katuwiran:
At aawit ng pagpupuri sa pangalan ng Panginoon na Kataastaasan.

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.
