The Lord is good,
    a stronghold in a day of trouble;
he protects those who take refuge in him,
    even in a rushing flood.
He will make a full end of his adversaries[a]
    and will pursue his enemies into darkness.(A)
Why do you plot against the Lord?
    He will make an end;
    no adversary will rise up twice.(B)
