Psalms 59:8-17

8But thou, Jehovah, wilt laugh at them; thou wilt have all the nations in derision.9Their strength! ...I will take heed to thee; for 1God is my high fortress.10 2God, whose loving-kindness will come to meet me, — 3God shall let me see [my desire] upon mine enemies.11Slay them not, lest my people forget; by thy power make them wander, and bring them down, O Lord, our shield.12[Because of] the sin of their mouth, the word of their lips, let them even be taken in their pride; and because of cursing and lying which they speak.13Make an end in wrath, make an end, that they may be no more; that they may know that 4God ruleth in Jacob, unto the ends of the earth. Selah.14And in the evening they shall return, they shall howl like a dog, and go round about the city.15They shall wander about for meat, and stay all night if they be not satisfied.16But as for me, I will sing of thy strength; yea, I will sing aloud of thy loving-kindness in the morning; for thou hast been to me a high fortress, and a refuge in the day of my trouble.17Unto thee, my strength, will I sing psalms; for 5God is my high fortress, the 6God of my mercy.
