But the LORD [is] with me as a mighty, awesome One. Therefore my persecutors will stumble, and will not prevail. They will be greatly ashamed, for they will not prosper. [Their] everlasting confusion will never be forgotten.

Let those be put to shame and brought to dishonor Who seek after my life; Let those be turned back and brought to confusion Who plot my hurt.

Let them be ashamed and brought to mutual confusion Who rejoice at my hurt; Let them be clothed with shame and dishonor Who exalt themselves against me.

Let them shout for joy and be glad, Who favor my righteous cause; And let them say continually, "Let the LORD be magnified, Who has pleasure in the prosperity of His servant."

Let them be ashamed and brought to mutual confusion Who seek to destroy my life; Let them be driven backward and brought to dishonor Who wish me evil.

Let them be ashamed and confounded Who seek my life; Let them be turned back and confused Who desire my hurt.

Let them be confounded and dismayed forever; Yes, let them be put to shame and perish,

That they may know that You, whose name alone [is] the LORD, [Are] the Most High over all the earth.

O my God, I trust in You; Let me not be ashamed; Let not my enemies triumph over me.

Indeed, let no one who waits on You be ashamed; Let those be ashamed who deal treacherously without cause.

In You, O LORD, I put my trust; Let me never be put to shame.

As for me, I have not hurried away from [being] a shepherd [who] follows You, Nor have I desired the woeful day; You know what came out of my lips; It was right there before You.

Give heed to me, O LORD, And listen to the voice of those who contend with me!

Therefore deliver up their children to the famine, And pour out their [blood] By the force of the sword; Let their wives [become] widows And bereaved of their children. Let their men be put to death, Their young men [be] slain By the sword in battle.

Yet, LORD, You know all their counsel Which is against me, to slay [me.] Provide no atonement for their iniquity, Nor blot out their sin from Your sight; But let them be overthrown before You. Deal [thus] with them In the time of Your anger.

But, O LORD of hosts, You who judge righteously, Testing the mind and the heart, Let me see Your vengeance on them, For to You I have revealed my cause.

" Therefore you shall say this word to them: 'Let my eyes flow with tears night and day, And let them not cease; For the virgin daughter of my people Has been broken with a mighty stroke, with a very severe blow.

"And first I will repay double for their iniquity and their sin, because they have defiled My land; they have filled My inheritance with the carcasses of their detestable and abominable idols."

He breaks me with wound upon wound; He runs at me like a warrior.

"Render to her just as she rendered to you, and repay her double according to her works; in the cup which she has mixed, mix double for her.
