Psalms 35:18-27

¹⁸I will give Thee thanks in the great congregation; I will praise Thee among a numerous people.

¹⁹Let not them that are wrongfully mine enemies rejoice over me; neither let them wink with the eye that hate me without a cause.

²⁰For they speak not peace; but they devise deceitful matters against them that are quiet in the land.

²¹Yea, they open their mouth wide against me; they say: 'Aha, aha, our eye hath seen it.'

²²Thou hast seen, O LORD; keep not silence; O Lord, be not far from me.

²³Rouse Thee, and awake to my judgment, even unto my cause, my God and my Lord.

²⁴Judge me, O LORD my God, according to Thy righteousness; and let them not rejoice over me.

²⁵Let them not say in their heart: 'Aha, we have our desire'; let them not say: 'We have swallowed him up.'

²⁶Let them be ashamed and abashed together that rejoice at my hurt; let them be clothed with shame and confusion that magnify themselves against me.

²⁷Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that delight in my righteousness; yea, let them say continually: 'Magnified be the LORD, who delighteth in the peace of His servant.'
