5. "For He has brought low those who dwell on high, the unassailable city; He lays it low, He lays it low to the ground, He casts it to the dust.
6. "The foot will trample it, The feet of the afflicted, the steps of the helpless."
7. The way of the righteous is smooth; O Upright One, make the path of the righteous level.
8. Indeed, while following the way of Your judgments, O Lord, We have waited for You eagerly; Your name, even Your memory, is the desire of our souls.
9. At night my soul longs for You, Indeed, my spirit within me seeks You diligently; For when the earth experiences Your judgments The inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.
10. Though the wicked is shown favor, He does not learn righteousness; He deals unjustly in the land of uprightness, And does not perceive the majesty of the Lord.
11. O Lord, Your hand is lifted up yet they do not see it. They see Your zeal for the people and are put to shame; Indeed, fire will devour Your enemies.
12. Lord, You will establish peace for us, Since You have also performed for us all our works.
13. O Lord our God, other masters besides You have ruled us; But through You alone we confess Your name.
