12 They swarmed around like bees,but by the power of the Lord,I got rid of themand their fiery sting.
13 Their attacks were so fiercethat I nearly fell,but the Lord helped me.
14 My power and my strengthcome from the Lord,and he has saved me.
15 From the tents of God's peoplecome shouts of victory:“The Lord is powerful!
16 With his mighty armthe Lord wins victories!The Lord is powerful!”
17 And so my life is safe,and I will live to tellwhat the Lord has done.
18 He punished me terribly,but he did not let deathlay its hands on me.
