Scriptures

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Psalm 7
⁶ Arise, O Lord, in Your anger; Lift up Yourself against the rage of my adversaries, And arouse Yourself for me; You have appointed judgment.
⁷ Let the assembly of the peoples encompass You, And over them return on high.
⁸ The Lord judges the peoples; Vindicate me, O Lord, according to my righteousness and my integrity that is in me.
⁹ O let the evil of the wicked come to an end, but establish the righteous; For the righteous God tries the hearts and minds.
¹⁰ My shield is with God, Who saves the upright in heart.
¹¹ God is a righteous judge, And a God who has indignation every day.
¹² If a man does not repent, He will sharpen His sword; He has bent His bow and made it ready.
¹³ He has also prepared for Himself deadly weapons; He makes His arrows fiery shafts.
¹⁴ Behold, he travails with wickedness, And he conceives mischief and brings forth falsehood.
¹⁵ He has dug a pit and hollowed it out, And has fallen into the hole which he made.
¹⁶ His mischief will return upon his own head, And his violence will descend upon his own pate.
