Context of Psalms 21:10

8You will capture all your enemies. Your strong right hand will seize all who hate you. 9You will throw them in a flaming furnace when you appear. The Lord will consume them in his anger; fire will devour them. You will wipe their children from the face of the earth; they will never have descendants. 11Although they plot against you, their evil schemes will never succeed. 12For they will turn and run when they see your arrows aimed at them.
