Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto YAHUVEH, concerning the words
of Cush a Benjamite. |
1
|
O YAHUVEH my YAHUVEH, in thee do I take refuge: Save me from all them that
pursue me, and deliver me, |
2
|
Lest they tear my soul like a lion, Rending it in pieces, while there is
none to deliver. |
3
|
O YAHUVEH my YAHUVEH, 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 was mine adversary;) |
5
|
Let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it; Yea, let him tread my
life down to the earth, And lay my glory in the dust. Selah |
6
|
Arise, O YAHUVEH, in thine anger; Lift up thyself against the rage of
mine adversaries, And awake for me; thou hast commanded judgment. |
7
|
And let the congregation of the peoples compass thee about; And over
them return thou on high. |
8
|
YAHUVEH ministereth judgment to the peoples: Judge me, O YAHUVEH,
according to my righteousness, and to mine integrity that is in me. |
9
|
O let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end, but establish thou
the righteous: For the righteous YAHUVEH trieth the minds and hearts. |
10
|
My shield is with YAHUVEH, Who saveth the upright in heart. |
11
|
YAHUVEH is a righteous judge, Yea, a YAHUVEH that hath indignation every
day. |
12
|
If a man 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 maketh his
arrows fiery shafts. |
14
|
Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; Yea, he hath conceived mischief,
and brought forth falsehood. |
15
|
He hath 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 violence shall come
down upon his own pate. |
17
|
I will give thanks unto YAHUVEH according to his righteousness, And will
sing praise to the name of YAHUVEH Most High. |
