God

O God, shatter their teeth in their mouths; O LORD, tear out the fangs of the lions.

Before your pots can feel the burning thorns— whether green or dry— He will sweep them away.

Then men will say, “There is surely a reward for the righteous! There is surely a God who judges the earth!”

Deliver me from my enemies, O my God; protect me from those who rise against me.

See how they lie in wait for me. Fierce men conspire against me for no transgression or sin of my own, O LORD.

O LORD God of Hosts, the God of Israel, rouse Yourself to punish all the nations; show no mercy to the wicked traitors. Selah

But You, O LORD, laugh at them; You scoff at all the nations.

I will keep watch for You, O my strength, because You, O God, are my fortress.

My God of loving devotion will come to meet me; God will let me stare down my foes.

Do not kill them, or my people will forget. Scatter them by Your power, and bring them down, O Lord, our shield.

Consume them in wrath; consume them till they are no more, so it may be known to the ends of the earth that God rules over Jacob. Selah

But I will sing of Your strength and proclaim Your loving devotion in the morning. For You are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble.

To You, O my strength, I sing praises, for You, O God, are my fortress, my God of loving devotion.

You have rejected us, O God; You have broken us; You have been angry; restore us!

You have shaken the land and torn it open. Heal its fractures, for it is quaking.

You have shown Your people hardship; we are staggered from the wine You made us drink.

You have raised a banner for those who fear You, that they may flee the bow. Selah

Respond and save us with Your right hand, that Your beloved may be delivered.

God has spoken from His sanctuary: “I will triumph! I will parcel out Shechem and apportion the Valley of Succoth.

Moab is My washbasin; upon Edom I toss My sandal; over Philistia I shout in triumph.”

Have You not rejected us, O God? Will You no longer march out, O God, with our armies?

With God we will perform with valor, and He will trample our enemies.

Hear my cry, O God; attend to my prayer.

From the ends of the earth I call out to You whenever my heart is faint. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

For You have been my refuge, a tower of strength against the enemy.
