Psalms 59:8-15

⁸Yet thou, O LORD! wilt laugh at them; Thou wilt hold all the nations in derision!

⁹O my Strength! to thee will I look! For God is my defence;

¹⁰My God will come to meet me with his mercy; God will cause me to look with joy upon my enemies.

¹¹Slay them not, lest my people forget; Scatter them by thy power, and cast them down, O Lord, our shield!

¹²The word of their lips is the sin of their mouth; Let them be overtaken in their pride, For the curses and the falsehood which they utter!

¹³Consume them in thy wrath; consume them that they be no more, That they may know that God ruleth in Jacob, Even to the ends of the earth! Pause.

¹⁴Let them return at evening, Let them howl like dogs, And go round about the city!

¹⁵Let them wander about for food, When they have passed the night unsatisfied!
