^16 (A)All your enemies
    rail against you;
they hiss, they gnash their teeth,
    they cry: “We ^(B)have swallowed her!
Ah, this is the day we longed for;
    now we have it; ^(C)we see it!”

¹⁷ The Lord has done what he purposed;
    he has carried out ^(A)his word,
which he commanded ^(B)long ago;
    ^(C)he has thrown down ^(D)without pity;
^(E)he has made the enemy rejoice over you
    and exalted the ^(F)might of your foes.
