13You divided the sea by your might; you broke the heads of the dragons in the waters.
14You crushed the heads of Leviathan; you gave him as food for the creatures of the wilderness.
15You cut openings for springs and torrents; you dried up ever-flowing streams.
16Yours is the day, yours also the night; you established the luminaries and the sun.
17You have fixed all the bounds of the earth; you made summer and winter.
18Remember this, O Lord, how the enemy scoffs, and an impious people reviles your name.
19Do not deliver the soul of your dove to the wild animals; do not forget the life of your poor forever.
20Have regard for your covenant, for the dark places of the land are full of the haunts of violence.
21Do not let the downtrodden be put to shame; let the poor and needy praise your name.
22Rise up, O God, plead your cause; remember how the impious scoff at you all day long.
23Do not forget the clamor of your foes, the uproar of your adversaries that goes up continually.
