1 O Yahweh, my God, in you I have taken refuge. Save me from all who pursue me, and deliver me.
2 Or else he will tear me apart like a lion, ripping to pieces, with none to deliver.
3 O Yahweh, my God, if I have done this, if there is wrong in my hands,
4 if I have repaid my ally with harm, or if I have plundered my enemy without cause,
5 let the enemy of my soul pursue, and overtake and trample my life into the ground, and lay my honor in the dust. Selah
6 Rise up, O Yahweh, in your anger, and lift yourself up against the wrath of my oppressors, and awake for me, since you have commanded judgment.
7 And let the assembly of peoples surround you, and over it return on high.
