Scripture focus

10. The God of my mercy shall prevent me: God shall let me see [my desire] upon mine enemies. 11. Slay them not, lest my people forget: scatter them by thy power; and bring them down, O Lord our shield. 12. [For] the sin of their mouth [and] the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying [which] they speak. 13. Consume [them] in wrath, consume [them], that they [may] not [be]: and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob unto the ends of the earth. Selah. 14. And at evening let them return; [and] let them make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city. 15. Let them wander up and down for meat, and grudge if they be not satisfied.
