Selah.⁶ Rise! Yahweh! in thine anger, Lift thyself up, because of the haughty outbursts of mine adversaries, Stir up for me the justice thou hast commanded:⁷ When, the assembly of peoples, gather round thee, then, above it - on high, do thou return!⁸ Yahweh, will judge the peoples, - Do me justice, O Yahweh, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity upon me,⁹ Let the wrong of the lawless, I pray thee, come to an end, and establish thou him that is righteous, - for, a trier of hearts and reins, is God the righteous one.

¹⁰ My shield, is held by God, who is ready to save the upright in heart:¹¹ A God to vindicate the righteous, - and yet a Got to be indignant throughout every day.¹² If he turn not, his sword, will he whet, - his bow, hath he bent, and made ready:¹³ But, for himself, hath he made ready the weapons so deadly, His arrows, he, so fiery, would make:¹⁴ Lo! he gendereth trouble, and conceiveth mischief, but giveth birth to a disappointment:¹⁵ A pit, he cut out, and digged it, and then fell into the ditch he had made:¹⁶ His mischief, turneth back, on his own head, - and, on his own crown, his violence, descendeth.¹⁷ I will praise Yahweh according to his righteousness, - and will praise in song the Name of Yahweh Most High.
