Judge them, O God; let them fail of their counsels: cast them out according to the abundance of their ungodliness; for they have provoked You, O Lord.

Arise, O Lord, in Your wrath; be exalted in the utmost boundaries of my enemies: awake, O Lord my God, according to the decree which You did command.

For none of them that wait on You shall in any way be ashamed; let them be ashamed that transgress without cause.

Let them be confounded and ashamed together that rejoice at my afflictions; let them be clothed with shame and confusion that speak great swelling words against me.

Let those that seek my soul, to destroy it, be ashamed and confounded together; let those that wish me evil be turned backward and put to shame.

Let those that say to me, Aha, aha, quickly receive shame for their reward.

Let those that plot [evil] against my soul be ashamed and utterly fail; let those that seek my hurt be clothed with shame and dishonor.

Fill their faces with dishonor; so shall they seek Your name, O Lord.

Let them be ashamed and troubled forevermore; yea, let them be confounded and destroyed.

Establish with me a token for good; and let them that hate me see [it] and be ashamed; because You, O Lord, have helped me, and comforted me.

Let them curse, but You shall bless; let them that rise up against me be ashamed, but let Your servant rejoice.

Let those that falsely accuse me be clothed with shame, and let them cover themselves with their shame as with a mantle.

The sinner shall see and be angry, he shall gnash his teeth, and consume away; the desire of the sinner shall perish.

His enemies will I clothe with shame; but upon Himself shall My holiness flourish.

O Lord, Your arm is exalted, yet they knew it not; but when they know they shall be ashamed; jealously shall seize upon an untaught nation, and now fire shall devour the adversaries.

But the Lord was with me as a mighty man of war; therefore they persecuted [me], but could not perceive [anything against me.] They were greatly confounded, for they perceived not their disgrace, which shall never be forgotten.

Then shall He speak to them in His anger, and trouble them in His fury.

Let Your hand be found by all Your enemies; let Your right hand find all that hate You.

You shall make them as a fiery oven at the time of Your presence; the Lord shall trouble them in His anger, and fire shall devour them.

Sit down now, and let there not be unrighteousness, and unite again with the just.

Then shall you return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, and between him that serves God, and him that serves Him not.

A reprover is better than a stiff-necked man, for when the latter is suddenly set on fire, there shall be no remedy.

For when they say, "Peace and safety!" then sudden destruction comes upon them, just as labor pains upon the woman that is pregnant, and they shall by no means escape.
