9 It is better to trust in the Lordthan to depend on human leaders.
10 Many enemies were around me;but I destroyed them by the power of the Lord!
11 They were around me on every side;but I destroyed them by the power of the Lord!
12 They swarmed around me like bees,but they burned out as quickly as a brush fire;by the power of the Lord I destroyed them.
13 I was fiercely attacked and was being defeated,but the Lord helped me.
14 The Lord makes me powerful and strong;he has saved me.
