10 You have made me as strong as a wild bull.
    You have poured pure olive oil on me.[a]
11 With my own eyes,
    I have seen my enemies fall.
With my own ears,

12 Righteous people will do well,
    like a palm tree that makes new leaves.
They will become strong,
    like a tall cedar tree in Lebanon.
