1 LORD my God, I seek refuge in you;
save me from all my pursuers and rescue me,
2 or they[fn] will tear me like a lion,
ripping me apart with no one to rescue me.
3 LORD my God, if I have done this,
if there is injustice on my hands,
4 if I have done harm to one at peace with me
or have plundered[fn] my adversary without cause,
5 may an enemy pursue and overtake me;
may he trample me to the ground
and leave my honor in the dust.Selah
6 Rise up, LORD, in your anger;
lift yourself up against the fury of my adversaries;
awake for me;[fn]
you have ordained a judgment.
7 Let the assembly of peoples gather around you;
take your seat on high over it.
8 The LORD judges the peoples;
vindicate me, LORD,
according to my righteousness and my integrity.
9 Let the evil of the wicked come to an end,
but establish the righteous.
The one who examines the thoughts and emotions[fn]
is a righteous God.
10 My shield is with God,
who saves the upright in heart.
11 God is a righteous judge
and a God who shows his wrath every day.
12 If anyone does not repent,
he will sharpen his sword;
he has strung his bow and made it ready.
13 He has prepared his deadly weapons;
he tips his arrows with fire.
14 See, the wicked one is pregnant with evil,
conceives trouble, and gives birth to deceit.
15 He dug a pit and hollowed it out
but fell into the hole he had made.
16 His trouble comes back on his own head;
his own violence comes down on top of his head.
17 I will thank the LORD for his righteousness;
I will sing about the name of the LORD Most High.
