Psalm 59:7-9

Authorized (King James) Version

⁷Behold, they belch out with their mouth:
swords are in their lips:
for who, say they, doth hear?
⁸But thou, O Lord, shalt laugh at them;
thou shalt have all the heathen in derision.
⁹Because of his strength will I wait upon thee:
for God is my defence.
