17. Lord, when wilt thou look upon me? rescue thou soul from their malice: my only one from the lions.
18. I will give thanks to thee in a great church; I will praise thee in a strong people.
19. Let not them that are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me: who have hated me without cause, and wink with the eyes.
20. For they spoke indeed peaceably to me; and speaking in the anger of the earth they devised guile.
21. And they opened their mouth wide against me; they said: Well done, well done, our eyes have seen it.
22. Thou hast seen, O Lord, be not thou silent: O Lord, depart not from me.
23. Arise, and be attentive to my judgment: to my cause, my God, and my Lord.
24. Judge me, O Lord my God according to thy justice, and let them not rejoice over me.
25. Let them not say in their hearts: It is well, it is well, to our mind: neither let them say: We have swallowed him up.
