New International Reader's Version

7 Because they are so evil, make sure you don’t let them escape.
    God, bring down the nations in your anger.
8 Make a record of my sadness.
    List my tears in your book.
    Aren’t you making a record of them?

9 My enemies will turn back
    when I call out to you for help.
    Then I will know that God is on my side.
