18I will then give you thanks in the great congregation, and praise you before many people.
19Suffer not those to rejoice over me who are falsely my foes, suffer not those who without cause abhor me to wink with the eye.
20For it is not peace that they speak of those who are quiet in the land; but treacherous charges they plot.
21With wide open mouths they shout, “Hurrah! Hurrah! With our own eyes we saw it.”
22But you have seen, too, O Lord, keep not silence, O Lord, be not far from me.
23Bestir you, awake, for my right my God, my Lord, for my cause.
24You are just, Lord: win for me justice, let them not rejoice over me,
25inwardly saying, “Hurrah! The desire of our hearts at last! Now we have swallowed him up.”
26Shame and confusion together on those who rejoice at my hurt! Clothed with shame and dishonor be those who are haughty to me!
27Let such as delight in my cause ring out their gladness, and say evermore, “Great is the Lord whose delight is the well-being of his servant.”
28Then my tongue will tell of your justice, and all the day long of your praise.
