7:2
O LORD my God, in Thee have I taken refuge; Save me from all them that pursue me, and deliver me;

O LORD my God, if I have done this; If there be iniquity in my hands;
—
7:5
If I have requited him that did evil unto me, Or spoiled mine adversary unto emptiness;
—
7:6
Let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it, And tread my life down to the earth; Yea, let him lay my glory in the dust. Selah

7:12
God is a righteous judge, Yea, a God that hath indignation every day:

If a man turn not, He will whet His sword, He hath bent His bow, and made it ready;
—
7:14
He hath also prepared for him the weapons of death, Yea, His arrows which He made sharp.

Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; Yea, he conceiveth mischief, and bringeth forth falsehood.

His mischief shall return upon his own head, And his violence shall come down upon his own pate.

I will give thanks unto the LORD according to His righteousness; And will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.
