3 Also draw out the spear,
And stop those who pursue me.
Say to my soul,
“I am your salvation.”

4 ^aLet those be put to shame and brought to dishonor
Who seek after my life;
Let those be ^bturned back and brought to confusion
Who plot my hurt. ‡

7 For without cause they have ^ahidden their net for me in a pit,
Which they have dug without cause for my life. ‡

8 Let ^adestruction come upon him unexpectedly,
And let his net that he has hidden catch himself;
Into that very destruction let him fall. ‡
