Psalms 59:8-17

8But thou, O LORD, shalt laugh at them; thou shalt have all the heathen in derision. 9Because of his strength will I wait upon thee: for God is my defence.1 10The God of my mercy shall help me: God shall let me see my desire upon my enemies.2 11Slay them not, lest my people forget: scatter them by thy power; and bring them down, O Lord our shield. 12For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak. 13Consume them in wrath, consume them, that they may not be : and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob to the ends of the earth. Selah. 14And at evening let them return; and let them make a noise like a dog, and go about the city. 15Let them wander up and down for food, and murmur if they are not satisfied.34 16But I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble. 17To thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God is my defence, and the God of my mercy.
