Selah.\n \n6\u00a0Arise, O LORD, in thine anger, lift up thyself because of the rage of mine enemies: and awake for me to the judgment that thou hast commanded.\n \n7\u00a0So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about: for their sakes therefore return thou on high.\n \n8\u00a0The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me.\n \n9\u00a0Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.\n \n10\u00a0My defence is of God, which saveth the upright in heart.\n \n11\u00a0God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.\n \n12\u00a0If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready.\n \n13\u00a0He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors.\n \n14\u00a0Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.\n \n15\u00a0He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.\n \n16\u00a0His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate.\n \n17\u00a0I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high.","title":"King James Version: Psalms: Psalms Chapter 7","type":"page"}
