nor boast^(J) so much
    in the day of their trouble.^(K)
13 You should not march through the gates of my people
    in the day of their disaster,
nor gloat over them in their calamity^(L)
    in the day of their disaster,
nor seize their wealth
    in the day of their disaster.
¹⁴ You should not wait at the crossroads
    to cut down their fugitives,^(M)
nor hand over their survivors

¹⁵ “The day of the Lord is near^(N)
    for all nations.
As you have done, it will be done to you;
    your deeds^(O) will return upon your own head.
¹⁶ Just as you drank^(P) on my holy hill,^(Q)
    so all the nations will drink^(R) continually;
they will drink and drink
    and be as if they had never been.^(S)

    and go about your altar, Lord,
⁷ proclaiming aloud your praise^(N)
    and telling of all your wonderful deeds.^(O)

⁸ Lord, I love^(P) the house where you live,
    the place where your glory dwells.^(Q)
9 Do not take away my soul along with sinners,
    my life with those who are bloodthirsty,^(R)
10 in whose hands are wicked schemes,^(S)
    whose right hands are full of bribes.^(T)
11 I lead a blameless life;
    deliver me^(U) and be merciful to me.

    in the great congregation^(W) I will praise the Lord.
