Psalm 7:6-17

New American Standard Bible

⁶^(A)Arise, Lord, in Your anger;
^(B)Raise Yourself against ^(C)the rage of my enemies,
And ^(D)stir Yourself ^[a]for me; You have ordered judgment.
⁷Let the assembly of the ^(E)peoples encompass You,
And return on high over it.
⁸The Lord ^(F)judges the peoples;
^[b]^(G)Vindicate me, Lord, according to my righteousness and my integrity that is in me.
⁹Please let ^(H)the evil of the wicked come to an end, but ^(I)establish the righteous;
For the righteous God ^(J)puts hearts and ^[c]minds to the test.
¹⁰My ^(K)shield is ^[d]with God,
Who ^(L)saves the upright in heart.
¹¹God is a ^(M)righteous judge,
And a God who ^(N)shows indignation every day.

¹²If one ^(O)does not repent, He will ^(P)sharpen His sword;
He has ^(Q)bent His bow and taken aim.
¹³He has also prepared deadly weapons for Himself;
He makes His ^(R)arrows fiery shafts.
¹⁴Behold, an evil person is pregnant with injustice,
And he ^(S)conceives harm and gives birth to lies.
¹⁵He has dug a pit and hollowed it out,
And has ^(T)fallen into the hole which he made.
¹⁶His ^(U)harm will return on his own head,
And his ^(V)violence will descend on the top of his own head.
