Today’s Scripture:







O Eternal my God, in You I seek refuge.    Save me from those who are chasing me. Rescue me,2 Or else they will tear me to pieces as a lion devours his prey;    they will carry me off with no one to snatch me from their jaws.







3 O Eternal my God, if I have done anything wrong to deserve this,    if there is blood on my hands,4 If I have mistreated a friend,    or if I have stolen from an adversary without just cause,5 Then let my enemy come after me and catch me,    stomping me into the ground, ending my life,    and grinding my honor into the dirt.







[pause][b]







6 Arise, O Eternal One, inflamed by Your anger.    Come and counter the rage of my adversaries;    open Your eyes, my God; hear my plea for justice once and for all.







7 Let the people gather around You.    Return to Your rightful place above them in the high court.8 The Eternal will judge the nations.    Judge me now, Eternal One, according to my virtue and integrity.







9 Please, bring the evil actions of these wicked, wicked people to an end!    But secure the righteous,For You, righteous God,    examine our hearts and minds.10 God is my defender;    He rescues those who have a pure heart.11 God is a just judge;    He passes judgment daily against the person who does evil.







12 If the wicked do not turn from their evil deeds, God will sharpen His sword;    He will bend His bow, stringing it in readiness.13 Yes, He has prepared His deadly weapons    with His arrows flaming hot.14 See, my enemies are fertile with evil.    They conceive trouble    and give birth to deception.15 They prepare a trap, digging a deep pit,    and fall into the snare they have made.16 The trouble they plan will return to punish them,    and their violent acts will come back to haunt them.







17 As a result, I will thank the Eternal for His justice    and sing praises in honor of the Eternal, Most High.
