God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.
David protested his innocence before God because his conscience did not accuse him of the wickedness laid to his charge. He committed his case to the Divine protection, reflecting on God's goodness and righteousness, assured that the vain attempts of his enemies would turn to their own destruction.

Commenting on Psalm 7:1-17
"God judgeth the righteous, " he hath not given thee up to be condemned by the lips of persecutors. Thine enemies cannot sit on God's throne, nor blot thy name out of his book. Let them alone, then, for God will find time for his revenge. "God is angry with the wicked every day." He not only detests sin, but is angry with those who continue to indulge in it.
My defense rests nowhere but in God alone. Two pillars hold me up: first, God saves the upright in heart with an everlasting salvation and will preserve them to His heavenly kingdom; second, God is a righteous Judge who owns every righteous cause and will punish all unrighteousness. On these, the innocent man stands unshaken.
