5. then let my enemies pursue me and catch me,let them cut me down and kill meand leave me lifeless on the ground!
6. Rise in your anger, O Lord!Stand up against the fury of my enemies;rouse yourself and help me!Justice is what you demand,
7. so bring together all the peoples round you,and rule over them from above.
8. You are the judge of the whole human race.Judge in my favour, O Lord;you know that I am innocent.
9. You are a righteous Godand judge our thoughts and desires.Stop the wickedness of evildoersand reward those who are good.
10. God is my protector;he saves those who obey him.
