^{11 Ref} So that he setteth up on high those that are low, And those that mourn are exalted to safety.

^{12 Ref} He frustrateth the devices of the crafty, So that their hands cannot perform their enterprise.

^{13 Ref} He taketh the wise in their own craftiness; And the counsel of the cunning is carried headlong.

^{14 Ref} They meet with darkness in the day-time, And grope at noonday as in the night.

^{15 Ref} But he saveth from the sword of their mouth, Even the needy from the hand of the mighty.

^{16 Ref} So the poor hath hope, And iniquity stoppeth her mouth.
