For there is (A)nothing [a]trustworthy in [b]their mouth;
Their (B)inward part is destruction itself.
Their (C)throat is an open grave;
They [c]flatter with their tongue.
10 Make them pay, God;
(D)Have them fall by their own schemes!
(E)Scatter them in the multitude of their wrongdoings,
For they are (F)rebellious against You.

11 But (G)rejoice, all who (H)take refuge in You,
Sing for joy forever!
And [d]may You (I)shelter them,
That those who (J)love Your name may rejoice in You.
