19. If thou wilt kill the wicked, O God: ye men of blood, depart from me:
20. Because you say in thought: They shall receive thy cities in vain.
21. Have I not hated them, O Lord, that hated thee: and pine away because of thy enemies?
22. I have hated them with a perfect hatred: and they are become enemies to me.
23. Prove me, O God, and know my heart: examine me, and know my paths.
24. And see if there be in me the way of iniquity: and lead me in the eternal way.
