7 But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord,I wait for God my Saviour;my God will hear me.
8 Do not gloat over me, my enemy!Though I have fallen, I will rise.Though I sit in darkness,the Lord will be my light.
9 Because I have sinned against him,I will bear the Lord’s wrath,until he pleads my caseand upholds my cause.He will bring me out into the light;I will see his righteousness.
10 Then my enemy will see itand will be covered with shame,she who said to me,‘Where is the Lord your God?’My eyes will see her downfall;even now she will be trampled underfootlike mire in the streets.
11 The day for building your walls will come,the day for extending your boundaries.
12 In that day people will come to youfrom Assyria and the cities of Egypt,even from Egypt to the Euphratesand from sea to seaand from mountain to mountain.
13 The earth will become desolate because of its inhabitants,as the result of their deeds.
