25Let their habitation be desolate. Let no one dwell in their tents.
26For they persecute him whom you have wounded. They tell of the sorrow of those whom you have hurt.
27Charge them with crime upon crime. Don’t let them come into your righteousness.
28Let them be blotted out of the book of life, and not be written with the upright.
29But I am in pain and distress. Let your yishu'ah ·salvation·, O God, protect me.
30I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.
31It will please Adonai better than an ox, or a bull that has horns and hoofs.
32The humble have seen it, and are glad. You who seek after God, let your heart live.
