Psalms 7:6

Justice

4 if I have rewarded my ally with evil, if I have plundered my foe without cause,

5 then may my enemy pursue me and overtake me; may he trample me to the ground and leave my honor in the dust. Selah

Arise, O LORD, in Your anger; rise up against the fury of my enemies. Awake, my God, and ordain judgment.

7 Let the assembled peoples gather around You; take Your seat over them on high.

8 The LORD judges the peoples; vindicate me, O LORD, according to my righteousness and integrity.

Read the whole chapter

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
