| 9The LORD has heard my appeal for mercy; the LORD has accepted my prayer. | 9The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer. |
| 10May all my enemies be humiliated and absolutely terrified! May they turn back and be suddenly humiliated! | 10Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly. |
