Psalm 118:12

New International Version

¹²They swarmed around me like bees,^(A)
but they were consumed as quickly as burning thorns;^(B)
in the name of the Lord I cut them down.^(C)

Psalm 118:12

King James Version

¹²They compassed me about like bees: they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of the Lord I will destroy them.

⁶Like the crackling of thorns^(A) under the pot,
so is the laughter^(B) of fools.
This too is meaningless.

⁶For as the crackling of thorns under a pot, so is the laughter of the fool: this also is vanity.

New International Version (NIV)
