[verse 9] Do to them, Lord, as in that day, when Midians hoast was strook: As to Jabin and Sisera, which fell at Kishon brook:

[verse 10] Which miserably perished at Endor, where he found There carcasses all scattered as dung upon the ground. [verse 11] Like Zeeb and Oreb, O compell their noble peers to fall: As Zeba and Zalmunna fell, so let their Princes all. [verse 12] Those namely that have spoken thus, come on, and let us take The houses of the Lord to us, and them our houses make. [verse 13] Make them I pray thee, O my God, like wheels that still turn round: Or like the stubble blown abroad, when whirlwinds sweep the ground. [verse 14] And as the fire consumes a wood with fierce and furious flame; And mountains where the trees once stood, are singed with the same. [verse 15] So let thy whirlwind furiously pursue them, Lord, full fast: And let thy tempests terrify, and fright them with thy blast. [verse 16] Cover, O Lord, and fill their face with their deserved shame: That they may humbly beg thy grace and seek thy glorious name. [verse 17] Yea let them all confounded be, and troubled day and night: Yea, bring them all to infamy, and let them perish quite. [verse 18] That men may know that thou alone, whom we Jehovah call, In all the earth the only one, art highest over all.
