1. Lord my God, I trust in you for protection.Save me and rescue mefrom those who are chasing me.
2. Otherwise, like a lion they will tear me apart.They will rip me to pieces, and no one can save me.
3. Lord my God, what have I done?Have my hands done something wrong?
4. Have I done wrong to my friendor stolen without reason from my enemy?
5. If I have, let my enemy chase me and capture me.Let him trample me into the dustand bury me in the ground.Selah
6. Lord, rise up in your anger;stand up against my enemies’ anger.Get up and demand fairness.
7. Gather the nations around youand rule them from above.
