O my Strength, I will watch and give heed to You and sing praises; for God is my Defense (my Protector and High Tower).

10 My God in His mercy and steadfast love will meet me; God will let me look [triumphantly] on my enemies (those who lie in wait for me).

11 Slay them not, lest my people forget; scatter them by Your power and make them wander to and fro, and bring them down, O Lord our Shield!

You are my strength,(A) I watch for you;
    you, God, are my fortress,(B)
10     my God on whom I can rely.

God will go before me
    and will let me gloat over those who slander me.
11 But do not kill them, Lord our shield,[a](C)
    or my people will forget.(D)
In your might uproot them
    and bring them down.(E)
