12 They surrounded me ^alike bees;
They were quenched ^blike a fire of thorns;
For in the name of the Lord I will¹ destroy them. ‡

13 You pushed me violently, that I might fall,
But the Lord helped me.

15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation
Is in the tents of the righteous;
The right hand of the Lord does valiantly.

16 ^aThe right hand of the Lord is exalted;
The right hand of the Lord does valiantly. ‡
