4When my enemy shall be turned back: they shall be weakened, and perish before thy face.

5For thou hast maintained my judgment and my cause: thou hast sat on the throne, who judgest justice.

6Thou hast rebuked the Gentiles, and the wicked one hath perished; thou hast blotted out their name for ever and ever.

7The swords of the enemy have failed unto the end: and their cities thou hast destroyed. Their memory hath perished with a noise:

ESVEnglish Standard Version

When my enemies turn back,

they stumble and perish before your presence.

For you have maintained my just cause;

you have sat on the throne, giving righteous judgment.

You have rebuked the nations; you have made the wicked perish;

you have blotted out their name forever and ever.

The enemy came to an end in everlasting ruins;

their cities you rooted out;

the very memory of them has perished.

My enemies turn back;

they stumble and perish before you.

For you have upheld my right and my cause,

sitting enthroned as the righteous judge.

Endless ruin has overtaken my enemies,

you have uprooted their cities;

even the memory of them has perished.

The enemy has come to eternal ruin;

you have uprooted the cities,

and the very memory of them has perished.

My enemies retreated;

they staggered and died when you appeared.

For you have judged in my favor;

from your throne you have judged with fairness.

you have erased their names forever.

The enemy is finished, in endless ruins;

the cities you uprooted are now forgotten.

they will stumble and perish because of your presence.

For you have maintained my just cause;

you have sat on the throne judging correctly.

Their name you have blotted out

forever and ever.

The enemies are destroyed in ruins forever,

and you have uprooted their cities;

their very memory has perished.

When mine enemies are turned back,

They shall fall and perish at thy presence.

For thou hast maintained my right and my cause;

Thou satest in the throne judging right.

Thou hast put out their name for ever and ever.

O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end:

And thou hast destroyed cities;

Their memorial is perished with them.
