6 Let my hater go after my soul and take it; let my life be crushed to the earth, and my honour into the dust. (Selah.)
7 Come up, Lord, in your wrath; be lifted up against my haters; be awake, my God, give orders for the judging.
8 The meeting of the nations will be round you; take your seat, then, over them, on high.
9 The Lord will be judge of the peoples; give a decision for me, O Lord, because of my righteousness, and let my virtue have its reward.
10 O let the evil of the evil-doer come to an end, but give strength to the upright: for men's minds and hearts are tested by the God of righteousness.
11 God, who is the saviour of the upright in heart, is my breastplate.
12 God is the judge of the upright, and is angry with the evil-doers every day.
