9. O let the wicked's malice end;but stablish stedfastlyThe righteous: for the righteous Godthe hearts and reins doth try.
10. In God, who saves th' upright in heart,is my defence and stay.
11. God just men judgeth, God is wrothwith ill men ev'ry day.
12. If he do not return again,then he his sword will whet;His bow he hath already bent,and hath it ready set:
13. He also hath for him prepar'dthe instruments of death;Against the persecutors hehis shafts ordained hath.
14. Behold, he with iniquitydoth travail, as in birth;A mischief he conceived hath,and falsehood shall bring forth.
