8Gebal and Ammon and Amalek, And foreigners with the inhabitants of Tyre;

10Deal with them as with Midian and Sisera, As with Jabin at the Brook Kishon;

11They were destroyed at Endor; They became like dung on the earth.

12Make their rulers like Oreb and Zeeb, And all their rulers like Zebah and Zalmunna,

13Who said, "Let us inherit the holy place of God for ourselves."

14O my God, turn them like a wheel, Like straw before the face of the wind,

15Like fire that burns through a thicket, Like a flame that sets mountains on fire;

16Thus You shall pursue them with Your storm, And You shall trouble them in your wrath.

17Fill their faces with disgrace, And they shall seek Your name, O Lord.

Greek verse alignment unresolved

18Let them be disgraced and troubled unto ages of ages, And let them be shamed and destroyed;

Greek verse alignment unresolved

19And let them know Your name is the Lord, That You alone are Most High over all the earth.
