12 In fury you trod the earth,
    in anger you trampled nations.
13 You came forth to save your people,
    to save your anointed.
You crushed the head of the wicked house,
    laying it bare from foundation to roof.[a]Selah

    who came like a whirlwind to scatter us,[e]
    gloating as if ready to devour the poor who were in hiding.
