13 I will give your wealth and your stores to your attackers, without a price, because of all your sins, even in every part of your land.
14 They will go away with your haters into a land which is strange to you: for my wrath is on fire with a flame which will be burning on you.
15 O Lord, you have knowledge: keep me in mind and come to my help, and give their right reward to those who are attacking me; take me not away, for you are slow to be angry: see how I have undergone shame because of you from all those who make little of your word;
16 But to me your word is a joy, making my heart glad; for I am named by your name, O Lord God of armies.
