10
My God in his steadfast love will meet me; my God will let me look in triumph on my enemies.
11
Do not kill them, or my people may forget; make them totter by your power, and bring them down, O Lord, our shield.
12
For the sin of their mouths, the words of their lips, let them be trapped in their pride. For the cursing and lies that they utter,
13
consume them in wrath; consume them until they are no more. Then it will be known to the ends of the earth that God rules over Jacob. (Selah)
14
Each evening they come back, howling like dogs and prowling about the city.
15
They roam about for food, and growl if they do not get their fill.
16
But I will sing of your might; I will sing aloud of your steadfast love in the morning. For you have been a fortress for me and a refuge in the day of my distress.
17
O my strength, I will sing praises to you, for you, O God, are my fortress, the God who shows me steadfast love.
