11But the LORD is with me like a dread champion;
         Therefore my persecutors will stumble and not prevail.
         They will be utterly ashamed, because they have failed,
         With an everlasting disgrace that will not be forgotten.

12Yet, O LORD of hosts, You who test the righteous,
         Who see the mind and the heart;
         Let me see Your vengeance on them;
         For to You I have set forth my cause.

13Sing to the LORD, praise the LORD!
         For He has delivered the soul of the needy one
         From the hand of evildoers.

14Cursed be the day when I was born;
         Let the day not be blessed when my mother bore me!

15Cursed be the man who brought the news
         To my father, saying,
         “A baby boy has been born to you!”
         And made him very happy.

16But let that man be like the cities
         Which the LORD overthrew without relenting,
         And let him hear an outcry in the morning
         And a shout of alarm at noon;

17Because he did not kill me before birth,
         So that my mother would have been my grave,
         And her womb ever pregnant.

18Why did I ever come forth from the womb
         To look on trouble and sorrow,
         So that my days have been spent in shame?
