6 Ignorant people don’t know—fools don’t understand this:
7 though the wicked spring up like grassand all evildoers seem to blossom,they do so only to be destroyed forever.
8 But you, Lord, are exalted forever!
9 Look at your enemies, Lord!Look at how your enemies die,how all evildoers are scattered abroad!
10 But you’ve made me as strong as a wild ox.I’m soaked in precious ointment.
11 My eyes have seen my enemies’ defeat;my ears have heard the downfall of my evil foes.
12 The righteous will spring up like a palm tree.They will grow strong like a cedar of Lebanon.
