11 But the Lord is with me like a violent warrior.(A)
Therefore, my persecutors will stumble and not prevail.
Since they have not succeeded, they will be utterly shamed,
an everlasting humiliation that will never be forgotten.(B)
12 Lord of Armies, testing the righteous
and seeing the heart[a] and mind,
let me see your vengeance on them,
for I have presented my case to you.(C)
13 Sing to the Lord!
Praise the Lord,
for he rescues the life of the needy
from evil people.

13 Sing to the Lord;
    praise the Lord!

    from the hands of evildoers.(C)
