14 They return at evening,
snarling like dogs,
and prowl about the city.

and howl if not satisfied.
16 But I will sing(B) of your strength,(C)
in the morning(D) I will sing of your love;(E)
for you are my fortress,(F)
my refuge in times of trouble.(G)
17 You are my strength, I sing praise to you;
you, God, are my fortress,
my God on whom I can rely.(H)

14 And at evening let them return; and let them make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.
15 Let them wander up and down for meat, and grudge if they be not satisfied.
16 But I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble.
17 Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God is my defence, and the God of my mercy.
