“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.”
Psalms 7:5 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 7:5
The oath continues with severe self-imprecation: if guilty, may the enemy prevail completely. 'Tread down my life upon the earth' suggests being trampled, while 'lay mine honour in the dust' means total humiliation. 'Selah' marks a pause to contemplate this serious oath. This shows David's confidence in his innocence regarding these specific charges. Such oaths were binding and dangerous - one didn't make them lightly. The principle teaches that integrity allows confident appeals to God's judgment.
