¹² If a man doesn't relent, he will sharpen his sword; He has bent and strung his bow.

¹³ He has also prepared for himself the instruments of death. He makes ready his flaming arrows.

⁴⁰ You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, That I might cut off those who hate me.

¹² He has bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.

⁷ But God will shoot at them. They will be suddenly struck down with an arrow.

⁹ Then my enemies shall turn back in the day that I call. I know this, that God is for me.

¹⁰ You make us turn back from the adversary. Those who hate us take spoil for themselves.

¹⁴ He sent out his arrows, and scattered them; Yes, great lightning bolts, and routed them.

³ When my enemies turn back, They stumble and perish in your presence.

¹² I was at ease, and he broke me apart. Yes, he has taken me by the neck, and dashed me to pieces. He has also set me up for his target.

¹³ His archers surround me. He splits my kidneys apart, and does not spare. He pours out my gall on the ground.

²⁰ If I have sinned, what do I do to you, you watcher of men? Why have you set me as a mark for you, So that I am a burden to myself?
