11 But the Lord is at my side
    like a mighty warrior.
Therefore, my persecutors will stumble,
    and they will not prevail.
Because of their failure,
    they will be greatly shamed,
and the disgrace that they will endure
    will be everlasting and unforgettable.
12 Lord of hosts, you test the righteous
    and probe the mind and the heart.
Let me behold your retribution on them,
    for to you I have committed my cause.
13 Sing to the Lord;
    praise the Lord.
For he has rescued the life of the poor
    from the power of the wicked.
