8. Do not grant the wicked their desires, Lord;do not let their plans succeed.
9. Those who surround me proudly rear their heads;may the mischief of their lips engulf them.
10. May burning coals fall on them;may they be thrown into the fire,into miry pits, never to rise.
11. May slanderers not be established in the land;may disaster hunt down the violent.
12. I know that the Lord secures justice for the poorand upholds the cause of the needy.
13. Surely the righteous will praise your name,and the upright will live in your presence.
