26. They persecute those whom you have punished;they talk about the sufferings of those you have wounded.
27. Keep a record of all their sins;don't let them have any part in your salvation.
28. May their names be erased from the book of the living;may they not be included in the list of your people.
29. But I am in pain and despair;lift me up, O God, and save me!
30. I will praise God with a song;I will proclaim his greatness by giving him thanks.
31. This will please the Lord more than offering him cattle,more than sacrificing a full-grown bull.
32. When the oppressed see this, they will be glad;those who worship God will be encouraged.
