In You I Have Taken Refuge
A● Shiggaion of David, which he sang to Yahweh concerning the words of Cush, a Benjamite.
O Yahweh my God, ain You I have taken refuge;Save me from all those who pursue me, and bdeliver me,2 Lest he tear 1my soul alike a lion,Rending me in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
3 O Yahweh my God, if I have done this,If there is ainjustice in my hands,4 If I have arewarded evil to him who 1is at peace with me,Or have bplundered my adversary without cause,5 Let the enemy pursue 1my soul and overtake 2it;And let him trample my life down to the groundAnd cause my glory to dwell in the dust.3Selah.
6 aArise, O Yahweh, in Your anger;bLift up Yourself against cthe fury of my adversaries,And darouse Yourself 1for me; You have appointed judgment.7 Let the congregation of the apeoples encompass You,And over 1them return on high.8 Yahweh ajudges the peoples;1bGive justice to me, O Yahweh, according to my righteousness and my integrity that is in me.9 O let athe evil of the wicked come to an end, but bestablish the righteous;For the righteous God ctests the hearts and 1minds.10 My ashield is 1with God,Who bsaves the upright in heart.11 God is a arighteous judge,And a God who has bindignation every day.
12 If 1a man adoes not repent, He will bsharpen His sword;He has cbent His bow and prepared it.13 He has also prepared 1for Himself deadly weapons;He makes His aarrows fiery shafts.14 Behold, he travails with wickedness,And he aconceives mischief and gives birth to falsehood.15 He has dug a pit and hollowed it out,And has afallen into the hole which he made.16 His amischief will return upon his own head,And his bviolence will descend upon 1his own skull.
17 I will give thanks to Yahweh aaccording to His righteousnessAnd will bsing praise to the name of Yahweh Most High.
