18. I will give thee thanks in the great congregation; I will praise thee among many people.
19. Let not those that are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me; neither let those that hate me wink with the eye without a cause.
20. For they do not speak peace, but they devise deceitful matters against those that are meek in the land.
21. Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me and said, Aha, aha, our eye has seen it.
22. This thou hast seen, O Lord; do not keep silence; O Lord, do not be far from me.
23. Stir up thyself and awake to my judgment, even unto my cause, my God and my Lord.
24. Judge me, O Lord my God, according to thy righteousness; and let them not rejoice over me.
25. Let them not say in their hearts, Ah, so would we have it; let them not say, We have swallowed him up.
26. Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion together that rejoice at my hurt; let them be clothed with shame and dishonour that magnify themselves against me.
27. Let them shout for joy and be glad that favour my righteous cause; let them say continually, Let the Lord be magnified, who has pleasure in the peace of his slave.
28. And my tongue shall speak of thy righteousness and of thy praise all the day long.
