7. though the wicked spring up like grassand all evildoers seem to blossom,they do so only to be destroyed forever.
8. But you, Lord, are exalted forever!
9. Look at your enemies, Lord!Look at how your enemies die,how all evildoers are scattered abroad!
10. But you’ve made me as strong as a wild ox.I’m soaked in precious ointment.
11. My eyes have seen my enemies’ defeat;my ears have heard the downfall of my evil foes.
12. The righteous will spring up like a palm tree.They will grow strong like a cedar of Lebanon.
13. Those who have been replanted in the Lord’s housewill spring up in the courtyards of our God.
14. They will bear fruit even when old and gray;they will remain lush and fresh
15. in order to proclaim:"The Lord is righteous.He’s my rock.There’s nothing unrighteous in him."
