Psalms 7:11-17 Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650)

11. God just men judgeth, God is wrothwith ill men ev'ry day.

12. If he do not return again,then he his sword will whet;His bow he hath already bent,and hath it ready set:

13. He also hath for him prepar'dthe instruments of death;Against the persecutors hehis shafts ordained hath.

14. Behold, he with iniquitydoth travail, as in birth;A mischief he conceived hath,and falsehood shall bring forth.

15. He made a pit and digg'd it deep,another there to take;But he is fall'n into the ditchwhich he himself did make.

16. Upon his own head his mischiefshall be returned home;His vi'lent dealing also downon his own pate shall come.

17. According to his righteousnessthe Lord I'll magnify;And will sing praise unto the nameof God that is most high.
