14 As the fire burns the woods, And as the flame sets the mountains on fire,
14 As fire consumes the forest or a flame sets the mountains ablaze,
15 So pursue them with Your tempest, And frighten them with Your storm.

16 Fill their faces with shame, That they may seek Your name, O Lord.
16 Cover their faces with shame, LORD, so that they will seek your name.

17 May they ever be ashamed and dismayed; may they perish in disgrace.
18 That they may know that You, whose name alone is the Lord, Are the Most High over all the earth.
18 Let them know that you, whose name is the LORD— that you alone are the Most High over all the earth.
