ESVEnglish Standard Version

I would soon subdue their enemies

and turn my hand against their foes.

Those who hate the Lord would cringe toward him,

and their fate would last forever.

But he would feed you with the finest of the wheat,

and with honey from the rock I would satisfy you.”

NIVNew International Version (2011)

how quickly I would subdue their enemies

and turn my hand against their foes!

Those who hate the Lord would cringe before him,

and their punishment would last forever.

But you would be fed with the finest of wheat;

with honey from the rock I would satisfy you.”

CSBChristian Standard Bible

I would quickly subdue their enemies

and turn my hand against their foes.”

Those who hate the Lord

would cower to him;

their doom would last forever.

But he would feed Israel with the best wheat.

“I would satisfy you with honey from the rock.”

NLTNew Living Translation

How quickly I would then subdue their enemies!

How soon my hands would be upon their foes!

Those who hate the Lord would cringe before him;

they would be doomed forever.

But I would feed you with the finest wheat.

I would satisfy you with wild honey from the rock.”

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

I would subdue their enemies quickly,

and turn my hand against their adversaries.

Those who hate Yahweh would cringe before him,

and their fate would be forever.

But he would feed him from the choicest wheat,

and I would satisfy you with honey from a rock.”

KJV 1900King James Version

I should soon have subdued their enemies,

And turned my hand against their adversaries.

The haters of the Lord should have submitted themselves unto him:

But their time should have endured for ever.

He should have fed them also with the finest of the wheat:

And with honey out of the rock should I have satisfied thee.
