10 How long, God, will the enemy (A)taunt You?
Shall the enemy (B)treat Your name disrespectfully forever?
11 Why (C)do You withdraw Your hand, even Your right hand?
Extend it from Your chest and (D)destroy them!

12 Yet God is (E)my King from long ago,
Who performs acts of salvation in the midst of the earth.
13 [a]You (F)divided the sea by Your strength;
[b]You (G)broke the heads of the (H)sea monsters [c]in the waters.
14 [d]You crushed the heads of [e](I)Leviathan;
You gave him as food for the [f]creatures (J)of the wilderness.
15 [g]You (K)broke open springs and torrents;
[h]You (L)dried up ever-flowing streams.
16 Yours is the day, Yours also is the night;
[i]You have (M)prepared the [j]light and the sun.
17 [k]You have (N)established all the boundaries of the earth;
[l]You have [m]created (O)summer and winter.

18 Remember this, [n]Lord, that the enemy has (P)taunted You,
And a (Q)foolish people has treated Your name disrespectfully.
