Let not the footof pridecomeupon me, And let not the handof the wickeddriveme away.
In pridethe wickedhotlypursuethe afflicted;Let them be caughtin the plotswhichthey have devised.
Be suretyfor Your servantfor good;Do not let the arrogantoppressme.
The arrogantutterlyderideme, [Yet] I do not turnasidefrom Your law.
The arroganthave forgeda lieagainstme; With all[my] heartI will observeYour precepts.
The arroganthave dugpitsfor me, [Men] whoare not in accord with Your law.
I have setthe LORDcontinuallybeforeme; BecauseHe is at my righthand,I will not be shaken.
He onlyis my rockand my salvation,My stronghold;I shall not be shaken.
"I will putit into the handof your tormentors,Whohave saidto you, 'Liedownthat we may walkover[you].' You have even madeyour backlike the groundAnd like the streetfor those who walkover[it]."
"NowI, Nebuchadnezzar,praise,exaltand honorthe Kingof heaven,for allHis worksare true and His waysjust,and He is ableto humblethose whowalkin pride."
