10 They shall mock the kings, and laugh the princes to scorn. They shall not set by any strong hold, for they shall lay ordinance against it, and take it. 11 Then shall they take a fresh courage unto them, to go forth and do more evil, and so ascribe that power unto their God. 12 But thou, O LORD my God, my holy one: thou art from the beginning, therefore shall we not die. O LORD, thou hast ordained them for punishment, and set them to reprove the mighty.
