12 Thou didst march through the land in indignation;
Thou didst thresh the nations in anger.
13 Thou [a]wentest forth for the salvation of thy people,
[b]For the salvation of thine anointed;
[c]Thou [d]woundest the head out of the house of the wicked man,
Laying bare the foundation even unto the neck. Selah

They came as a whirlwind to scatter me;
Their rejoicing was as to devour the poor secretly.
