Psalms 59:9
Compare all
7 Indeed, they belch with their mouth;
aSwords are in their lips;
For they say, b“Who hears?” 
8 But aYou, O Lord, shall laugh at them;
You shall have all the1 nations in derision. 
9 I will wait for You, O You1 his Strength;
aFor God is my1 defense. 
10 1My God of mercy shall acome to meet me;
God shall let bme see my desire on my enemies. 
11 Do not slay them, lest my people forget;
Scatter them by Your power,
And bring them down,
O Lord our shield.
12 aFor the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips,
Let them even be taken in their pride,
And for the cursing and lying which they speak.
