8. But you, O Yahweh, will laugh at them; you will mock all the nations.
9. O my strength, I will watch for you, because you, O God, are my (high) stronghold.
10. My God of loyal love will meet me; God will cause me to look in triumph on my enemies.
11. Do not kill them, lest my people forget. Make them to wander by your power, and bring them down, O Lord, our shield.
12. By the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips, even in their pride, let them be trapped, and for the curses and lies they proclaim.
13. Destroy in anger; destroy so they are no more, so that they may know that God is ruling in Jacob to the ends of the earth. Selah
14. They return at evening; they howl like dogs while they prowl the city.
15. As for them, they wander for food. If they are not satisfied, then they continue all night.
16. But as for me, I will sing of your strength, and I will hail your loyal love in the morning, because you have been my high stronghold and a refuge in my time of trouble.
17. O my strength, to you I will give praise, because God is my high stronghold, my God of loyal love.
