Psalms 7
- 1 O Jehovah my God, in thee do I take refuge: Save me from all them that pursue me, and deliver me,
- 2 Lest they tear my soul like a lion, Rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
- 3 O Jehovah my God, if I have done this; If there be iniquity in my hands;
- 4 If I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me (Yea, I have delivered him that without cause was mine adversary);
- 5 Let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it; Yea, let him tread my life down to the earth, And lay my glory in the dust. [Selah
- 6 Arise, O Jehovah, in thine anger; Lift up thyself against the rage of mine adversaries, And awake for me; thou hast commanded judgment.
- 7 And let the congregation of the peoples compass thee about; And over them return thou on high.
- 8 Jehovah ministereth judgment to the peoples: Judge me, O Jehovah, according to my righteousness, and to mine integrity that is in me.
- 9 Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end, but establish thou the righteous: For the righteous God trieth the minds and hearts.
- 10 My shield is with God, Who saveth the upright in heart.
- 11 God is a righteous judge, Yea, a God that hath indignation every day.
- 12 If a man turn not, he will whet his sword; He hath bent his bow, and made it ready;
- 13 He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; He maketh his arrows fiery shafts.
- 14 Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; Yea, he hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
- 15 He hath made a pit, and digged it, And is fallen into the ditch which he made.
- 16 His mischief shall return upon his own head, And his violence shall come down upon his own pate.
- 17 I will give thanks unto Jehovah according to his righteousness, And will sing praise to the name of Jehovah Most High.

American Standard Version (asv - 2)
2021-02-18English (en)
The American Standard Version (ASV) of the Holy Bible is in the Public Domain. Please feel free to copy it, give it away, memorize it, publish it, sell it, or whatever God leads you to do with it.
The American Standard Version of 1901 is an Americanization of the English Revised Bible, which is an update of the KJV to less archaic spelling and greater accuracy of translation. It has been called "The Rock of Biblical Honesty." It is the product of the work of over 50 Evangelical Christian scholars.
While the ASV retains many archaic word forms, it is still more understandable to the modern reader than the KJV in many passages. The ASV also forms the basis for several modern English translations, including the World English Bible (http://www.eBible.org/bible/WEB), which is also in the Public Domain. The ASV uses "Jehovah" for Godߴs proper name. While the current consensus is that this Holy Name was more likely pronounced "Yahweh," it is refreshing to see this rendition instead of the overloading of the word "Lord" that the KJV, NASB, and many others do.
Pronouns referring to God are not capitalized in the ASV, as they are not in the NIV and some others, breaking the tradition of the KJV. Since Hebrew has no such thing as tense, and the oldest Greek manuscripts are all upper case, anyway, this tradition was based only on English usage around 1600, anyway. Not capitalizing these pronouns solves some translational problems, such as the coronation psalms, which refer equally well to an earthly king and to God.- Encoding: UTF-8
