5. Let the enemy pursue my soul and overtake it; And let him trample my life down to the ground And lay my glory in the dust. Selah.
6. Arise, O Lord, in Your anger; Lift up Yourself against the rage of my adversaries, And arouse Yourself for me; You have appointed judgment.
7. Let the assembly of the peoples encompass You, And over them return on high.
8. The Lord judges the peoples; Vindicate me, O Lord, according to my righteousness and my integrity that is in me.
9. O let the evil of the wicked come to an end, but establish the righteous; For the righteous God tries the hearts and minds.
10. My shield is with God, Who saves the upright in heart.
11. God is a righteous judge, And a God who has indignation every day.
12. If a man does not repent, He will sharpen His sword; He has bent His bow and made it ready.
13. He has also prepared for Himself deadly weapons; He makes His arrows fiery shafts.
14. Behold, he travails with wickedness, And he conceives mischief and brings forth falsehood.
