Psalms 7
From Association of Independent Readers and Rootworkers
| |||||||||||
Hoodoo psychic readers, spirit workers and root doctors who recite Psalms on behalf of clients may work with Psalm 7 during
altar work and prayers when there are enemies plottting against you, especially if more than one conspire behind your back. This Psalm is a plea for stability and for the Lord's assistance in removing ungodly and lawless people from the client's environment. It is common for a hoodoo doctor to add Psalm 37 to the recitation of Psalm 7 during spell-casting if the evil-minded person is also working against the interests of the client by spreading gossip, lies, and false testimony. If enemies are in pursuit, the final 12 verses of Psalm 7 are employed to stop them. Additionally, Psalm 35 may be recited with Psalm 7 if the root doctor fears that a court case decision may go against a client
Psalms 7
Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto the Lord, concerning the words of Cush the Benjamite.
[1] O Lord my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me:
[2] Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
[3] O LORD 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 is mine enemy:)
[5] Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; yea, let him tread down my life upon the earth, and lay mine honour in the dust. Selah.
[6] Arise, O LORD, in thine anger, lift up thyself because of the rage of mine enemies: and awake for me to the judgment that thou hast commanded.
[7] So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about: for their sakes therefore return thou on high.
[8] The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me.
[9] Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.
[10] My defence is of God, which saveth the upright in heart.
[11] God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.
[12] If he 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 ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors.
[14] Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
[15] He 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 violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate.
[17] I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high.
