`The
Erring
One,'
by
David, that
he sung
to Jehovah
concerning the words of Cush a Benjamite. O Jehovah,
my God, in
Thee
I have
trusted,
Save me from all my pursuers, and
deliver
me.
A
Shiggaion
of
David, which
he sang
to the
LORD
concerning the words of Cush ,
a Benjamite. O LORD
my God, I take
refuge
in
You;
save me and
deliver
me
from all my pursuers,
Lest
he
tear
as
a
lion
my soul ,
Rending,
and there
is
no deliverer
.
or
they
will
shred
my soul like
a
lion
and tear
me
to
pieces
with
no one
to
rescue
me
.
O Jehovah,
my God, if I have done this, If there
is iniquity
in
my hands,
O LORD
my God, if I have done this, if injustice
is on
my hands,
If I have done
my well-wisher
evil, And
draw
mine
adversary
without cause,
if I have rewarded
my ally
with
evil, if
I
have
plundered
my
foe
without cause,
An
enemy
pursueth
my soul,
and
overtaketh,
And treadeth
down
to the earth
my
life,
And my honour
placeth
in the dust. Selah .
then
may
my enemy
pursue
me
and overtake
me;
may
he
trample
me
to the ground
and leave
my honor
in the dust. Selah
Rise
, O Jehovah
, in Thine
anger ,
Be
lifted
up at
the wrath
of mine
adversaries
, And awake
Thou
for
me:
Judgment Thou
hast
commanded:
Arise
, O LORD
, in Your
anger ;
rise
up against
the fury
of my
enemies.
Awake
, my
God,
and ordain
judgment .
And
a
company
of
peoples compass
Thee,
And
over it
on high turn
Thou
back,
Let
the
assembled
peoples gather
around
You;
take
Your
seat
over them
on high .
Jehovah
doth
judge
the peoples; Judge
me, O Jehovah
, According to my righteousness ,
And according
to
mine
integrity on
me,
The LORD
judges
the
peoples; vindicate
me, O LORD
, according to my righteousness and integrity .
Let,
I
pray
Thee
be
ended
the evil of the wicked, And
establish Thou
the righteous, And
a
trier
of
hearts
and
reins
is
the
righteous God.
Put
an
end
to
the evil of the wicked, but
establish the righteous, O
righteous God who
searches
hearts
and
minds
.
My shield `
is '
on
God, Saviour
of
the upright in heart !
My shield is with
God, who
saves
the upright in heart .
God `
is '
a righteous judge ,
And He
is
not
angry
at
all
times
.
God is a righteous judge and a
God
who
feels
indignation
each
day
.
If `
one '
turn
not, His sword he sharpeneth,
His bow he
hath
trodden
--
He
prepareth
it,
If one does
not repent
, God
will
sharpen
His sword ;
He has
bent
and
strung
His bow .
Yea,
for
him
He hath
prepared Instruments
of
death,
His arrows
for
burning
pursuers
He maketh
.
He has
prepared His deadly
weapons;
He ordains
His
arrows
with
fire
.
Lo
, he
travaileth
`
with '
iniquity,
And
he hath
conceived
perverseness,
And hath
brought
forth
falsehood.
Behold
, the
wicked
man
travails
with evil;
he conceives
trouble
and births
falsehood.
A
pit
he hath
prepared,
and he
diggeth
it ,
And
he falleth
into a ditch
he
maketh
.
He has
dug
a
hole
and hollowed
it out;
he has
fallen
into a pit
of
his
own
making
.
Return
doth
his perverseness
on his
head
, And on
his crown
his
violence cometh
down
.
His trouble
recoils
on himself
, and his violence falls
on
his
own
head
.
I thank Jehovah,
According
to
His righteousness ,
And praise the name of Jehovah
Most High !
I will
thank the
LORD
for
His righteousness and sing
praise to
the name of the
LORD
Most High .
