Let them be confounded and consumed that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered with reproach and dishonour that seek my hurt.

Verse 13 is found in chapter 71 of Psalms. Psalm 71 presents the prayer of a person who remembers God’s faithfulness from the early stages of life and asks not to be abandoned in old age. Biographical memory becomes a theological argument: the God who sustained him before can continue to sustain him. The psalmist desires to transmit God’s strength to the coming generation and, after expressing his hope, promises to continually praise the Lord for his righteousness and faithfulness.

Schämen müssen sich und umkommen, die meiner Seele zuwider sind; mit Schande und Hohn müssen sie überschüttet werden, die mein Unglück suchen.
Sean avergonzados, fallezcan los adversarios de mi alma; Sean cubiertos de vergüenza y de confusión los que mi mal buscan.
Que sean avergonzados y consumidos los adversarios de mi vida; que se cubran de deshonra y humillación quienes buscan mi mal.
Qu'ils soient confus, anéantis, ceux qui en veulent à ma vie! Qu'ils soient couverts de honte et d'opprobre, ceux qui cherchent ma perte!
Sieno confusi, e vengano meno gli avversari dell’anima mia; Quelli che procacciano il mio male sieno coperti di onta e di vituperio
Sejam confundidos e consumidos os que são adversários da minha alma; cubram-se de opróbrio e de confusão aqueles que procuram o meu mal.
願那與我為敵的,羞愧滅亡; 願那謀害我的,受辱蒙羞。
