7 Sovereign Lord, my strong deliverer,you shield my head in the day of battle.
8 Do not grant the wicked their desires, Lord;do not let their plans succeed.
9 Those who surround me proudly rear their heads;may the mischief of their lips engulf them.
10 May burning coals fall on them;may they be thrown into the fire,into miry pits, never to rise.
11 May slanderers not be established in the land;may disaster hunt down the violent.
12 I know that the Lord secures justice for the poorand upholds the cause of the needy.
13 Surely the righteous will praise your name,and the upright will live in your presence.
