3My enemies turn back;

they stumble and perish before you.

4For you have upheld my rightj and my cause,k

sitting enthronedl as the righteous judge.m

5You have rebuked the nationsn and destroyed the wicked;

you have blotted out their nameo for ever and ever.

6Endless ruin has overtaken my enemies,

you have uprooted their cities;p

even the memory of themq has perished.

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.

they stumble and perish before you.

For you have upheld my just cause;

you are seated on your throne as a righteous judge.

You have destroyed the wicked;

you have erased their name forever and ever.

The enemy has come to eternal ruin;

you have uprooted the cities,

and the very memory of them has perished.

NLTNew Living Translation

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 rebuked the nations and destroyed the wicked;

you have erased their names forever.

The enemy is finished, in endless ruins;

the cities you uprooted are now forgotten.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

When my enemies turn back,

they will stumble and perish because of your presence.

For you have maintained my just cause;

you have sat on the throne judging correctly.

You have rebuked the nations;

you have destroyed the wicked.

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.

KJV 1900King James Version

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 rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked,

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.
