10 You are the one who gives victory to kings.
    You are the one who snatches your servant David
    away from a deadly sword.
11 Snatch me, and rescue me from foreigners’ hands.
    Their mouths speak lies.
        Their right hands take false pledges.

12 May our sons be like full-grown, young plants.
    May our daughters be like stately columns
    that adorn the corners of a palace.

    rescue me(D) from the hands of foreigners(E)
whose mouths are full of lies,(F)
    whose right hands are deceitful.(G)

    will be like well-nurtured plants,(H)
and our daughters will be like pillars(I)
    carved to adorn a palace.
