5 Lord God All-Powerful,you are the God of Israel.Punish the other nationsand don't pity those terribleand rebellious people.
6 My enemies return at evening,growling like dogsroaming the city.
7 They curse and their wordscut like swords,as they say to themselves,“No one can hear us!”
8 You, Lord, laugh at themand sneer at the nations.
9 You are my mighty fortress,and I depend on you.
10 You love me and will let mesee my enemies defeated.
11 Don't kill them,or everyone may forget!Just use your mighty powerto make them trembleand fall.You are a shieldfor your people.
