Psalm 7:13

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors.

For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may secretly shoot at the upright in heart.

Your arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's enemies; by which the people fall under you.

Who whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words:

Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: shoot out your arrows, and destroy them.

I will heap evils upon them; I will spend my arrows upon them.

For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, the poison thereof drinks up my spirit: the terrors of God do set themselves in array against me.

He has bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.

The sun and moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of your arrows they went, and at the shining of your glittering spear.

Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you;

And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, do you not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?

For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and you have given them blood to drink; for they are deserving of it.

Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for my help.
