9. Grant not, Adonai, the desires of the wicked. Do not let their evil plan succeed, or they will exalt themselves. Selah
10. As for the head of those surrounding me, may the mischief of their lips overwhelm them.
11. Let burning coals fall upon them. May they be cast into the fire, into deep pits, never to rise again.
12. May a slanderer not endure in the land. May calamity hunt down a violent man.
13. I know Adonai will vindicate the poor, and secure justice for the needy.
14. Surely, the righteous ones will praise Your name. The upright will dwell in Your presence.
