| 11 Though they intended evil against You And devised a plot, They will not succeed. | 11 For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform. | 11 Although they scheme and plan evil against you, they will not succeed. | 11 For they intended evil against you. They plotted evil against you which cannot succeed. | 11 For they intended evil against thee; they imagined a mischievous device, which they could not execute. | 12 For You will make them turn their back; You will aim with Your bowstrings at their faces. | 12 Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, when thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the face of them. | 12 They turn their backs [and flee] because you aim your bow at their faces. | 12 For you will make them turn their back, when you aim drawn bows at their face. | 12 For thou wilt make them turn their back; thou wilt make ready thy bowstring against their face. | 13 Be exalted, O LORD, in Your strength; We will sing and praise Your power. | 13 Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: so will we sing and praise thy power. | 13 Arise, O LORD, in your strength. We will sing and make music to praise your power. | 13 Be exalted, Yahweh, in your strength, so we will sing and praise your power. For the Chief Musician; set to "The Doe of the Morning."
