12For thou wilt bless the just. O Lord, thou hast crowned us, as with a shield of thy good will.


In Context

9 for there is no truth in their mouth; their heart is vain.

10 Their throat is an open sepulchre: they dealt deceitfully with their tongues: judge them, O God. Let them fall from their devices: according to the multitude of their wickedness cast them out: for they have provoked thee, O Lord.

11 But let all them be glad that hope in thee: they shall rejoice for ever, and thou shalt dwell in them. And all they that love thy name shall glory in thee:

12 For thou wilt bless the just. O Lord, thou hast crowned us, as with a shield of thy good will.
