Psalm 7:2

Prayer For Justice

¹ A Shiggaion of David, which he sang to the Lord concerning Cush, a Benjamite.
O Lord my God, in You I have taken refuge;
Save me from all those who pursue me, and deliver me,
² Or he will tear my soul like a lion,
Dragging me away, while there is none to deliver.
³ O Lord my God, if I have done this,
If there is injustice in my hands,

Rescue Me
