7 The Lord himself doth take my part, With them that [help and] succour me; Therefore on those that do me hate, His justice I shall [shortly] see.
8 It's better to trust in the Lord, Than [for to] trust to man's defence:
9 Better to trust in God, than put In Princes [any] confidence.
10 The nations did against me rise, And [did en-] compass me about; But in the name of God I shall Destroy [them all] and root them out.
11 Numbers did compass me about; [I say] they compassed me about: But in the name of God I shall Cut [them all] down, and cast them out.
