[Selah 6They return at evening, they howl like a dog, And go round about the city. 7Behold, they belch out with their mouth; Swords are in their lips: For who, say they, doth hear? 8But thou, O Jehovah, wilt laugh at them; Thou wilt have all the nations in derision. 9Because ofhis strength I will give heed unto thee; For God is my high tower. 10My God with his lovingkindness will meet me: God will let me see my desire upon mine enemies. 11Slay them not, lest my people forget: Scatter them by thy power, and bring them down, O Lord our shield. 12Forthe sin of their mouth, and the words of their lips, Let them even be taken in their pride, And for cursing and lying which they speak. 13Consume them in wrath, consume them, so that they shall be no more: And let them know that God ruleth in Jacob, Unto the ends of the earth. [Selah 14And at evening let them return, let them howl like a dog, And go round about the city. 15They shall wander up and down for food, And tarry all night if they be not satisfied. 16But I will sing of thy strength; Yea, I will sing aloud of thy lovingkindness in the morning: For thou hast been my high tower, And a refuge in the day of my distress. 17Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing praises: For God is my high tower, the God of my mercy. ‹Previous chapterPsalms 58Next chapterPsalms 60›Similar passagesBy tradition and source labelFind similarCompare selectedCompare with similarAsk Deep ThoughtSelect passages to search for parallels.VersionsPsalms 59 across 9 versionsShow all 9WEB - World English BibleKJV - King James VersionASV - American Standard VersionDarby - Darby BibleYLT - Young's Literal TranslationWebster - Webster BibleGeneva - Geneva BibleDouay - Douay-Rheims ChallonerRV1909 - Reina-Valera 1909Tap any verse to select it, then compare selected passages or ask Deep Thought.
