PSALM SEVEN

A shiggaion of David, which he sang to the Lord 

concerning Cush, a Benjaminite.

1 

Lord my God, I take refuge in you;

    save and deliver me from all who pursue me,

2 

or they will tear me apart like a lion

    and rip me to pieces with no one to rescue me.

3 

Lord my God, if I have done this

    and there is guilt on my hands –

4 

if I have repaid my ally with evil

    or without cause have robbed my foe –

5 

then let my enemy pursue and overtake me;

    let him trample my life to the ground

    and make me sleep in the dust.

6 

Arise, Lord, in your anger;

    rise up against the rage of my enemies.

    Awake, my God; decree justice.

7 

Let the assembled peoples gather round you,

    while you sit enthroned over them on high.

8 

    Let the Lord judge the peoples.

Vindicate me, Lord, according to my righteousness,

    according to my integrity, O Most High.

9 

Bring to an end the violence of the wicked

    and make the righteous secure –

you, the righteous God

    who probes minds and hearts.

10 

My shield is God Most High,

    who saves the upright in heart.

11 

God is a righteous judge,

    a God who displays his wrath every day.

12 

If he does not relent,

    he will sharpen his sword;

    he will bend and string his bow.

13 

He has prepared his deadly weapons;

    he makes ready his flaming arrows.

14 

Whoever is pregnant with evil

    conceives trouble and gives birth to disillusionment.

15 

Whoever digs a hole and scoops it out

    falls into the pit they have made.

16 

The trouble they cause recoils on them;

    their violence comes down on their own heads.

17 

I will give thanks to the Lord because of his righteousness;

    I will sing the praises of the name of the Lord Most High.

PSALM SIX

For the director of music. With stringed instruments. 

According to sheminith. 

A psalm of David.

1 

Lord, do not rebuke me in your anger

    or discipline me in your wrath.

2 

Have mercy on me, Lord, for I am faint;

    heal me, Lord, for my bones are in agony.

3 

My soul is in deep anguish.

    How long, Lord, how long?

4 

Turn, Lord, and deliver me;

    save me because of your unfailing love.

5 

Among the dead no one proclaims your name.

    Who praises you from his grave?

6 

I am worn out from my groaning.

All night long I flood my bed with weeping

    and drench my couch with tears.

7 

My eyes grow weak with sorrow;

    they fail because of all my foes.

8 

Away from me, all you who do evil,

    for the Lord has heard my weeping.

9 

The Lord has heard my cry for mercy;

    the Lord accepts my prayer.

10 

All my enemies will be overwhelmed with shame and anguish;

    they will turn back and suddenly be put to shame.
