¹⁴ It was you who crushed the heads of Leviathan^(A)
    and gave it as food to the creatures of the desert.^(B)

²³ Kings^(A) will be your foster fathers,
    and their queens your nursing mothers.^(B)
They will bow down^(C) before you with their faces to the ground;
    they will lick the dust^(D) at your feet.
Then you will know that I am the Lord;^(E)
    those who hope^(F) in me will not be disappointed.^(G)”

¹⁷ They will lick dust^(A) like a snake,
    like creatures that crawl on the ground.
They will come trembling^(B) out of their dens;
    they will turn in fear^(C) to the Lord our God
    and will be afraid of you.
