and ^okeeps wrath for his enemies.

he will make a complete end of the adversaries, ^{▼▼Hebrew of her place}
and ^rwill pursue his enemies into darkness.
9 What ^sdo you plot against the Lord?
^tHe will make a complete end;
trouble will not rise up a second time.
10 For they are ^ulike entangled thorns,
like drunkards as they drink;
^vthey are consumed like stubble fully dried.

But ^adwrath has come upon them at last! ^{▼▼Or completely, or forever}
