Psalms 7 - EasyEnglish Bible 2024（EASY）

Psalm 7A song with music that David wrote.He sang this song to the Lord about Benjamin's descendant, Cush.God always does what is right

1 Lord, my God, I come to you to keep me safe.

Please save me from all those people who want to catch me.

2If you do not keep me safe,

my enemies will tear me into pieces.

They will attack me like lions do,

and nobody will be able to save me.

3-5 Lord, my God, if I have done a wrong thing,

then let my enemies chase me and catch me.

If I have done a bad thing against a friend,

let my enemies catch me.

If I have helped a friend's enemy to attack him,

let my enemies catch me!

If I am guilty of any of these things,

let my enemies knock me down to the ground.

They should leave me there,

so that I lie as a dead person in the dirt.

6But Lord, now do something!

Wake up and help me!

Show how angry you are against my enemies.

Punish them in the way that you know is right!

7Bring together the people of all nations,

to stand in front of you.

Rule over them from high above.

8You, Lord, judge the people of all nations.

Lord, Most High God, say that I am not guilty.

Truly, I am righteous and honest.

9Stop wicked people from doing evil things.

Keep your own people safe.

You always do what is right,

and you know how we think and feel.

10The Most High God is like a shield to keep me safe.

He takes care of good, honest people.

11God is a judge who is fair.

Every day he is angry against wicked people.

12If they do not change the way that they live,

God will prepare to punish them.

He will make his sword sharp,

and he will put an arrow in his bow.

13He will prepare his dangerous weapons.

He is ready to shoot his arrows that burn with fire.

14Look! Wicked people prepare to do evil things!

They want to cause trouble.

Like a pregnant woman,

what starts inside them comes out for everyone to see!

They give birth to lies that deceive people.

15Wicked people want to hurt people.

They are digging a deep hole for people to fall into.

But they fall into the hole themselves!

16The ideas that they have to hurt other people

bring trouble on themselves!

They want to be cruel to other people,

but they themselves receive the pain!

17So I will thank the Lord

because he does what is right.

The Lord is the Most High God,

so I will sing to praise his name!
