When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at thy presence.

Verse 3 is found in chapter 9 of Psalms. Psalm 9 combines praise for divine interventions with a request that God continue judging the nations and defending the oppressed. The memory of past works sustains present trust: the God who previously judged remains a refuge for those who suffer. The structure contrasts the permanence of the Lord with the apparent prosperity of violent peoples and culminates in a request that the nations recognize their human condition before the true Judge.

Ich freue mich und bin fröhlich in dir und lobe deinen Namen, du Allerhöchster,
Por haber sido mis enemigos vueltos atrás: Caerán y perecerán delante de ti.
Cuando mis enemigos retroceden, tropiezan y perecen ante tu presencia.
Mes ennemis reculent, Ils chancellent, ils périssent devant ta face.
Perciocchè i miei nemici hanno volte le spalle; Son caduti, e periti d’innanzi alla tua faccia.
Porquanto os meus inimigos retornaram, caíram e pereceram diante da tua face.
我的仇敵回轉撤退的時候, 他們在你面前跌倒滅亡。
