2 For behold, Your enemies roar, || And those hating You have lifted up the head, For behold, your enemies make an uproar; those who hate you have raised their heads. See how your enemies growl, how your foes rear their heads.

9 Do to them as Midian, || As Sisera, as Jabin, at the Brook of Kishon. Do to them as you did to Midian, as to Sisera and Jabin at the river Kishon, Do to them as you did to Midian, as you did to Sisera and Jabin at the river Kishon,
10 They were destroyed at Endor, || They were dung for the ground! who were destroyed at En-dor, who became dung for the ground. who perished at Endor and became like dung on the ground.
11 Make their nobles as Oreb and as Zeeb, || And as Zebah and Zalmunna—all their princes, Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna, Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
12 Who have said, “Let us occupy the pastures of God for ourselves.” who said, “Let us take possession for ourselves of the pastures of God.” who said, “Let us take possession of the pasturelands of God.”
13 O my God, make them as a rolling thing, || As stubble before wind. O my God, make them like whirling dust, like chaff before the wind. Make them like tumbleweed, my God, like chaff before the wind.
14 As a fire burns a forest, || And as a flame sets hills on fire, As fire consumes the forest, as the flame sets the mountains ablaze, As fire consumes the forest or a flame sets the mountains ablaze,
15 So You pursue them with Your whirlwind, || And trouble them with Your windstorm. so may you pursue them with your tempest and terrify them with your hurricane! so pursue them with your tempest and terrify them with your storm.

18 And they know that You—Your Name [is] YHWH—By Yourself [are] the Most High over all the earth! that they may know that you alone, whose name is the LORD, are the Most High over all the earth. Let them know that you, whose name is the LORD— that you alone are the Most High over all the earth.
