Not he will deceive an enemy him and a son of injustice not he will afflict him.
23 And I will cut down his enemies before his face; and them that hate him I will put to flight.
And I will crush from before him opponents his and [those who] hate him I will strike down.
24 And my truth and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
And faithfulness my and covenant loyalty my [will be] with him and in name my it will be exalted horn his.

Also you turn back [the] flint of sword his and not you have raised up him in battle.
44 Thou hast made his purification to cease: and thou hast cast his throne down to the ground.
You have made cease from luster his and throne his to the ground you have thrown.
45 Thou hast shortened the days of his time: thou hast covered him with confusion.
You have made short [the] days of youth his you have wrapped on him shame (Selah)
46 How long, O Lord, turnest thou away unto the end? shall thy anger burn like fire?
Until when? O Yahweh will you hide yourself? to perpetuity will it burn? like a fire anger your.

49 Lord, where are thy ancient mercies, according to what thou didst swear to David in thy truth?
Where? - [are] covenant loyalti your former - O Lord [which] you swore an oath to David in faithfulness your.
50 Be mindful, O Lord, of the reproach of thy servants (which I have held in my bosom) of many nations:
Remember O Lord [the] reproach of servants your bearing my in bosom my all many peoples.
51 Wherewith thy enemies have reproached, O Lord; wherewith they have reproached the change of thy anointed.
Which they have reproached enemies your - O Yahweh which they have reproached [the] footprints of anointed your.
52 Blessed be the Lord for evermore. So be it. So be it.
[be] blessed Yahweh for ever amen - and amen.
