12 They (en)compassed me as bees, and they burnt out as fire among thorns; and in the name of the Lord, for I am avenged on them. (They surrounded me like bees, but they burned out quickly, like a fire among the thorns; for in the name of the Lord, I shall be avenged upon them/I shall destroy them.)

13 I was hurled, and turned upside-down, that I should fall down; and the Lord took me up (but the Lord helped me up).

14 The Lord is my strength, and my praising; and he is made to me into health (and he is my salvation, or my deliverance/and he hath saved me).
