3. O Lord my God, if I have done this, If there is injustice in my hands,
4. If I have rewarded evil to my friend, Or have plundered him who without cause was my adversary,
5. Let the enemy pursue my soul and overtake it; And let him trample my life down to the ground And lay my glory in the dust. Selah.
6. Arise, O Lord, in Your anger; Lift up Yourself against the rage of my adversaries, And arouse Yourself for me; You have appointed judgment.
7. Let the assembly of the peoples encompass You, And over them return on high.
8. The Lord judges the peoples; Vindicate me, O Lord, according to my righteousness and my integrity that is in me.
9. O let the evil of the wicked come to an end, but establish the righteous; For the righteous God tries the hearts and minds.
