DesktopsYou may be mis-reading that page. Mavericks 10.9.1 is newer than 10.7.3, so click the Download Java link at the bottom of the page:
Java for Mac
Check your version of Mac OS X. » How do I find my Mac OS X version?
Mac OS X Version 10.6 and below
Use Software Update available on the Apple menu to check that you have the most up-to-date version of Java 6 for your Mac. Java 7 is not supported by these older versions of Mac OS X. If you have problems with Java 6, contact Apple Technical Support. Java.com does not provide a download for these systems.
Mac OS X Version 10.7.3 (Lion) or newer
Java 7 can run on your Mac. Java 7 requires an Intel-based Mac running Mac OS X 10.7.3 (Lion) or later and administrator privileges for installation.
» Information about installing and using Java 7 on Mac
» Download Java Mac OS X Version 10.7.3 (Lion) or newerIf that is not the problem, please explain further.

Jan 16, 2016 8:06 AM in response to hpham92by Grant Bennet-Alder,You can buy a download code for 10.7 Lion from the Apple Online Store for US$20.The code is delivered by email from a person, so it takes a few days.
You then use that code at the Mac App Store, and it will entitle you to (re-) download 10.7 Lion.
