Tread

Through You we will push back our adversaries;
Through Your name we will trample down those who rise up against us.

Through God we shall do valiantly,

And it is He who will tread down our adversaries.

“Look on everyone who is proud, and humble him,
And tread down the wicked where they stand.

I send it against a godless nation
And commission it against the people of My fury
To capture booty and to seize plunder,
And to trample them down like mud in the streets.

“I have trodden the wine trough alone,
And from the peoples there was no man with Me.
I also trod them in My anger
And trampled them in My wrath;
And their lifeblood is sprinkled on My garments,
And I stained all My raiment.

“They will be as mighty men,

Treading down the enemy in the mire of the streets in battle;

And they will fight, for the Lord will be with them;
And the riders on horses will be put to shame.

You will tread down the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet on the day which I am preparing,” says the Lord of hosts.

Lay

But man in his pomp will not endure;
He is like the beasts that perish.

“I have sewed sackcloth over my skin
And thrust my horn in the dust.

“Hide them in the dust together;
Bind them in the hidden place.

O Lord, the hope of Israel,
All who forsake You will be put to shame.
Those who turn away on earth will be written down,
Because they have forsaken the fountain of living water, even the Lord.
