10 aLet burning coals fall upon them;
Let them be cast into the fire,
Into deep pits, that they rise not up again. 
11 Let not a slanderer be established in the earth;
Let evil hunt the violent man to overthrow him.”
12 I know that the Lord will amaintain
The cause of the afflicted,
And justice for the poor. 
13 Surely the righteous shall give thanks to Your name;
The upright shall dwell in Your presence.
