Job 5:11-15
11he asets on high those who are lowly,and those who mourn are lifted to safety.
12He bfrustrates the devices of the crafty,
so that their hands achieve no success.
13He ccatches the wise in their own craftiness,
and the schemes of the wily are brought to a quick end.
14They meet with darkness in the daytime
and dgrope at noonday as in the night.
15But he esaves the needy from the sword of their mouth
and from the hand of the mighty.
Psalms 27:1-3

my adversaries and foes,
it is they who stumble and fall.
