Psalm 21:12

A Conservative Version

For thou will make them turn their back. Thou will make ready with thy bowstrings against their face.

See the chapter Copy

Thou have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, that I might cut off those who hate me.

But God will shoot at them. With an arrow they shall suddenly be wounded.

He has bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.

Then shall my enemies turn back in the day that I call. This I know, that God is for me.

Thou make us to turn back from the adversary. And those who hate us take spoil for themselves.

When my enemies turn back, they stumble and perish at thy presence.

If I have sinned, what do I do to thee, O thou watcher of men? Why have thou set me as a mark for thee, so that I am a burden to myself?

And he sent out his arrows, and scattered them, Yea, lightnings manifold, and discomfited them.

Take counsel together, and it shall be brought to nothing. Speak the word, and it shall not stand, for God is with us.
