Psalms 7:1-5

In You Do I Take Refuge

A ^aShiggaion ^{▼▼Probably a musical or liturgical term} of David, which he sang to the Lord concerning the words of Cush, a Benjaminite.

1 O Lord my God, in you do I ^ctake refuge;
^dsave me from all my pursuers and deliver me,
2 lest like ^ea lion they tear my soul apart,
rending it in pieces, with ^fnone to deliver.
3 O Lord my God, ^gif I have done this,
if there is ^hwrong in my hands,
4 if I have repaid ⁱmy friend ^{▼▼Hebrew the one at peace with me} with evil
or ^kplundered my enemy without cause,
5 let the enemy pursue my soul and overtake it,
and let him ^ltrample my life to the ground
and lay my glory in the dust. Selah

Psalms 35:7

7 For ^mwithout cause ⁿthey hid their net for me;
without cause they dug ^oa pit for my life. ^{▼▼The word pit is transposed from the preceding line; Hebrew For without cause they hid the pit of their net for me; without cause they dug for my life}

Psalms 35:19

19 ^qLet not those rejoice over me
who are ^rwrongfully my foes,
and let not those ^swink the eye
who ^thate me ^uwithout cause.

19 But my foes are vigorous, they are mighty,
and many are those who hate me ^vwrongfully.

Psalms 59:3-4

3 For behold, they ^wlie in wait for my life;
fierce men ^xstir up strife against me.
^yFor no transgression or sin of mine, O Lord,
4 for no fault of mine, they run and make ready.
^zAwake, come to meet me, and see!

Psalms 119:78

78 Let ^aathe insolent be put to ^abshame,
because they have ^acwronged me with falsehood;
as for me, I will ^admeditate on your precepts.

to speak good for them,
to turn away your wrath from them.
