Psalms 7:9

7 So the congregation of the peoples shall surround You;
For their sakes, therefore, return on high.

8 The Lord shall judge the peoples;
^aJudge me, O Lord, ^baccording to my righteousness,
And according to my integrity within me.

9 Oh, let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end,
But establish the just;
^aFor the righteous God tests the hearts and¹ minds.

10 ¹My defense is of God,
Who saves the ^aupright in heart.

11 God is a just judge,
And God is angry with the wicked every day.

12 If he does not turn back,
He will ^asharpen His sword;
He bends His bow and makes it ready.

13 He also prepares for Himself instruments of death;
He makes His arrows into fiery shafts.

14 ^aBehold, the wicked brings forth iniquity;
Yes, he conceives trouble and brings forth falsehood.

15 He made a pit and dug it out,
^aAnd has fallen into the ditch which he made.

16 ^aHis trouble shall return upon his own head,
And his violent dealing shall come down on¹ his own crown.

17 I will praise the Lord according to His righteousness,
And will sing praise to the name of the Lord Most High.
