ShiggaionH7692 of David,H1732 whichH834 he sangH7891 unto the LORD,H3068 concerningH5921 the wordsH1697 of CushH3568 the Benjamite.H1145 O LORDH3068 my God,H430 in you do I put my trust:H2620 saveH3467 me from allH3605 them that persecuteH7291 me, and deliverH5337 me:
2
LestH6435 he tearH2963 my soulH5315 like a lion,H738 rendingH6561 it in pieces, while there is noneH369 to deliver.H5337
3
O LORDH3068 my God,H430 ifH518 I have doneH6213 this;H2063 ifH518 there be iniquityH5766 in my hands;H3709
4
IfH518 I have rewardedH1580 evilH7451 to him that was at peaceH7999 with me; (yes, I have deliveredH2502 him that withoutH7387 causeH7387 is my enemy:H6887)
5
Let the enemyH341 persecuteH7291 my soul,H5315 and takeH5381 it; yes, let him treadH7429 down my lifeH2416 on the earth,H776 and layH7931 my honorH3519 in the dust.H6083 Selah.H5542
6
Arise,H6965 O LORD,H3068 in your anger,H639 liftH5375 up yourself because of the rageH5678 of my enemies:H6887 and awakeH5782 for me to the judgmentH4941 that you have commanded.H6680
7
So shall the congregationH5712 of the peopleH3816 compassH5437 you about: for their sakesH5921 therefore returnH7725 you on high.H4791
8
The LORDH3068 shall judgeH1777 the people:H5971 judgeH8199 me, O LORD,H3068 according to my righteousness,H6664 and according to my integrityH8537 that is in me.
9
OhH4994 let the wickednessH7451 of the wickedH7563 come to an end;H1584 but establishH3559 the just:H6662 for the righteousH6662 GodH430 triesH974 the heartsH3826 and reins.H3629
10
My defenseH4043 is of God,H430 which savesH3467 the uprightH3477 in heart.H3820
11
GodH430 judgesH8199 the righteous,H6662 and GodH410 is angryH2194 with the wicked everyH3605 day.H3117
12
IfH518 he turnH7725 not, he will whetH3913 his sword;H2719 he has bentH1869 his bow,H7198 and made it ready.H3559
13
He has also preparedH3559 for him the instrumentsH3627 of death;H4194 he ordainsH6466 his arrowsH2671 against the persecutors.H1814
14
Behold,H2009 he travailsH2254 with iniquity,H205 and has conceivedH2029 mischief,H5999 and broughtH3205 forthH3205 falsehood.H8267
15
He madeH3738 a pit,H953 and digH2658 it, and is fallenH5307 into the ditchH7845 which he made.H6466
16
His mischiefH5999 shall returnH7725 on his own head,H7218 and his violentH2555 dealing shall comeH3381 downH3381 on his own pate.H6936
17
I will praiseH3034 the LORDH3068 according to his righteousness:H6664 and will sing praise to the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 mostH5945 high.H5945
