Psalm 21:12

For Thou makest them a butt, When Thy strings Thou preparest against their faces.

If one turn not, His sword he sharpeneth, His bow he hath trodden -- He prepareth it,

As to mine enemies -- Thou hast given to me the neck, As to those hating me -- I cut them off.

I have sinned, what do I to Thee, O watcher of man? Why hast Thou set me for a mark to Thee, And I am for a burden to myself -- and what?

At ease I have been, and he breaketh me, And he hath laid hold on my neck, And he breaketh me in pieces, And he raiseth me to him for a mark.

In mine enemies turning backward, they stumble and perish from Thy face.

And He sendeth His arrows and scattereth them, And much lightning, and crusheth them.

Thou causest us to turn backward from an adversary, And those hating us, Have spoiled for themselves.

Then turn back do mine enemies in the day I call. This I have known, that God is for me.

And God doth shoot them with an arrow, Sudden have been their wounds,

He hath trodden His bow, And setteth me up as a mark for an arrow.
