11 Bless, LORD, his substance, and accept the work of his hands; strike through the loins of them that rise against him, and of them that hate him, that they rise not again.

28 Israel then shall dwell in safety alone: the fountain of Jacob shall be upon a land of corn and wine; also his heavens shall drop down dew.
Potem bo Izrael sam prebival na varnem. Jakobov studenec bo na deželi žita in vina; tudi njegovo nebo bo kapljalo roso.
29 Happy are you, O Israel: who is like unto you, O people saved by the LORD, the shield of your help, and who is the sword of your excellency! and your enemies shall be found liars unto you; and you shall tread upon their high places.
Srečen si ti, oh Izrael. Kdo je tebi podoben, oh ljudstvo, rešeno po Gospodu, ščitu tvoje pomoči in kdo je meč tvoje odličnosti! In tvoji sovražniki ti bodo najdeni kot lažnivci, in teptal jih boš na njihovih visokih krajih.«
