Psalms 7:6-13 Modern English Version (MEV)

6. Arise, O Lord, in Your anger;rise up because of the rage of my adversaries,and awaken Yourself for me; You have commanded justice.

7. The congregation of the peoples surround You;return above it to heaven’s heights.

8. The Lord will judge the peoples;grant me justice, O Lord, according to my righteousness,and according to my integrity within me.

9. May the evil of the wicked come to an end;may You vindicate the righteous one;You are a righteous God who examines the minds and hearts.

10. My defense depends on God,who saves the upright in heart.

11. God is a righteous judge,and God has indignation every day.

12. If one does not repent,God will sharpen His sword;He has bent His bow and made it ready.

13. He has prepared for Himself deadly weapons;He makes His arrows flaming shafts.
