8 Lord, don't give the wicked what they want;don't let their plots succeed.
9 Don't let my enemies be victorious;make their threats against me fall back on them.
10 May red-hot coals fall on them;may they be thrown into a pit and never get out.
11 May those who accuse others falsely not succeed;may evil overtake violent people and destroy them.
12 Lord, I know that you defend the cause of the poorand the rights of the needy.
13 The righteous will praise you indeed;they will live in your presence.
