16  ^qHe saw that there was no man,

and wondered that there was no one to intercede;

then his own arm brought him salvation,

and his righteousness upheld him.

17  ^rHe put on righteousness as a breastplate,

and a helmet of salvation on his head;

he put on garments of vengeance for clothing,

and wrapped himself in ^szeal as a cloak.

18  ^tAccording to their deeds, so will he repay,

wrath to his adversaries, repayment to his enemies;

^uto the coastlands he will render repayment.
