Psalm 59:6-8

New International Reader's Version

⁶My enemies are like a pack of barking dogs
    that come back to the city in the evening.
    They prowl around the city.
⁷Listen to what pours out of their mouths.
    The words from their lips are like swords.
    They think, “Who can hear us?”
⁸But you laugh at them, Lord.
    You make fun of all those nations.
