18. I will thank you in the great congregation;in the mighty throng I will praise you.
19. Let not those rejoice over mewho are wrongfully my foes,and let not those wink the eyewho hate me without cause.
20. For they do not speak peace,but against those who are quiet in the landthey devise words of deceit.
21. They open wide their mouths against me;they say, “Aha, Aha!Our eyes have seen it!”
22. You have seen, O Lord; be not silent!O Lord, be not far from me!
23. Awake and rouse yourself for my vindication,for my cause, my God and my Lord!
