5. You are the Lord God All-Powerful, the God of Israel.Arise and punish those people.Do not give those traitors any mercy. Selah
6. They come back at night.Like dogs they growl and roam around the city.
7. Notice what comes from their mouths.Insults come from their lips,because they say, “Who’s listening?”
8. But, Lord, you laugh at them;you make fun of all of them.
9. God, my strength, I am looking to you,because God is my defender.
10. My God loves me, and he goes in front of me.He will help me defeat my enemies.
11. Lord, our protector, do not kill them, or my people will forget.With your power scatter them and defeat them.
12. They sin by what they say;they sin with their words.They curse and tell lies,so let their pride trap them.
13. Destroy them in your anger;destroy them completely!Then they will knowthat God rules over Israeland to the ends of the earth.Selah
