Psalms 59:11
Psalms 59:11 American Standard Version (ASV)
Slay them not, lest my people forget: Scatter them by thy power, and bring them down, O Lord our shield.
Psalms 59:11-13 The Message (MSG)
Don’t make quick work of them, GOD, lest my people forget. Bring them down in slow motion, take them apart piece by piece. Let all their mean-mouthed arrogance catch up with them, Catch them out and bring them down —every muttered curse —every barefaced lie. Finish them off in fine style! Finish them off for good! Then all the world will see that God rules well in Jacob, everywhere that God’s in charge.
