## In You I Have Taken Refuge
###### 1
O Yahweh my God, in You I have taken refuge; Save me from all those who pursue me, and deliver me,
###### 2
Lest he tear my soul like a lion, Rending me in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
###### 3
O Yahweh my God, if I have done this, If there is injustice in my hands,
###### 4
If I have rewarded evil to him who is at peace with me, Or have plundered my adversary without cause,
###### 5
Let the enemy pursue my soul and overtake _it_; And let him trample my life down to the ground And cause my glory to dwell in the dust. Selah.
###### 6
Arise, O Yahweh, in Your anger; Lift up Yourself against the fury of my adversaries, And arouse Yourself for me; You have appointed judgment.
###### 7
Let the congregation of the peoples encompass You, And over them return on high.
###### 8
Yahweh judges the peoples; Give justice to me, O Yahweh, 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 tests the hearts and minds.
###### 10
My shield is with God, Who saves the upright in heart.
###### 11
God is a righteous judge, And a God who has indignation every day.
###### 12
If a man does not repent, He will sharpen His sword; He has bent His bow and prepared it.
###### 13
He has also prepared for Himself deadly weapons; He makes His arrows fiery shafts.
###### 14
Behold, he travails with wickedness, And he conceives mischief and gives birth to falsehood.
###### 15
He has dug a pit and hollowed it out, And has fallen into the hole which he made.
###### 16
His mischief will return upon his own head, And his violence will descend upon his own skull.
###### 17
I will give thanks to Yahweh according to His righteousness And will sing praise to the name of Yahweh Most High.
