I Take Refuge in You
{Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto the LORD, concerning the words of Cush the Benjamite.} O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me:
{Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto the LORD, concerning the words of Cush the Benjamite.} O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me:
If you don’t, they will maul me like a lion,
tearing me to pieces with no one to rescue me.
tearing me to pieces with no one to rescue me.
Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
O LORD my God, if I have done wrong
or am guilty of injustice,
or am guilty of injustice,
O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands;
if I have betrayed a friend
or plundered my enemy without cause,
or plundered my enemy without cause,
If I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me; (yea, I have delivered him that without cause is mine enemy:)
then let my enemies capture me.
Let them trample me into the ground
and drag my honor in the dust.
Interlude
Let them trample me into the ground
and drag my honor in the dust.
Interlude
Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; yea, let him tread down my life upon the earth, and lay mine honour in the dust. Selah.
Arise, O LORD, in anger!
Stand up against the fury of my enemies!
Wake up, my God, and bring justice!
Stand up against the fury of my enemies!
Wake up, my God, and bring justice!
Arise, 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.
Gather the nations before you.
Rule over them from on high.
Rule over them from on high.
So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about: for their sakes therefore return thou on high.
The LORD judges the nations.
Declare me righteous, O LORD,
for I am innocent, O Most High!
Declare me righteous, O LORD,
for I am innocent, O Most High!
The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me.
End the evil of those who are wicked,
and defend the righteous.
For you look deep within the mind and heart,
O righteous God.
and defend the righteous.
For you look deep within the mind and heart,
O righteous God.
Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.
God is my shield,
saving those whose hearts are true and right.
saving those whose hearts are true and right.
My defence is of God, which saveth the upright in heart.
God is an honest judge.
He is angry with the wicked every day.
He is angry with the wicked every day.
God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.
If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready.
He will prepare his deadly weapons
and shoot his flaming arrows.
and shoot his flaming arrows.
He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors.
The wicked conceive evil;
they are pregnant with trouble
and give birth to lies.
they are pregnant with trouble
and give birth to lies.
Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
They dig a deep pit to trap others,
then fall into it themselves.
then fall into it themselves.
He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.
The trouble they make for others backfires on them.
The violence they plan falls on their own heads.
The violence they plan falls on their own heads.
His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate.
