Psalm 59:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 Slay them [a]not, lest my people forget it: but scatter them abroad by thy power, and put them down, O Lord, our shield,
12 For the sin of their mouth, and the words of their lips: and let them be [b]taken in their pride, even for their perjury and lies, that they speak.
13 [c]Consume them in thy wrath: consume them that they be no more: and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob, even unto the ends of the world. Selah.
