3. My enemies turn back;they stumble and perish before you.
4. For you have upheld my right and my cause,sitting enthroned as the righteous judge.
5. You have rebuked the nations and destroyed the wicked;you have blotted out their name for ever and ever.
6. Endless ruin has overtaken my enemies,you have uprooted their cities;even the memory of them has perished.
7. The Lord reigns for ever;he has established his throne for judgment.
8. He rules the world in righteousnessand judges the peoples with equity.
9. The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed,a stronghold in times of trouble.
