8. My whole being follows hard after You and clings closely to You; Your right hand upholds me.
9. But those who seek and demand my life to ruin and destroy it shall [themselves be destroyed and] go into the lower parts of the earth [into the underworld of the dead].
10. They shall be given over to the power of the sword; they shall be a prey for foxes and jackals.
11. But the king shall rejoice in God; everyone who swears by Him [that is, who binds himself by God's authority, acknowledging His supremacy, and devoting himself to His glory and service alone; every such one] shall glory, for the mouths of those who speak lies shall be stopped.
