18I will give You thanks in the great congregation;
         I will praise You among a mighty throng.

19Do not let those who are wrongfully my enemies rejoice over me;
         Nor let those who hate me without cause wink maliciously.

20For they do not speak peace,
         But they devise deceitful words against those who are quiet in the land.

21They opened their mouth wide against me;
         They said, “Aha, aha, our eyes have seen it!”

22You have seen it, O LORD, do not keep silent;
         O Lord, do not be far from me.

23Stir up Yourself, and awake to my right
         And to my cause, my God and my Lord.

24Judge me, O LORD my God, according to Your righteousness,
         And do not let them rejoice over me.

25Do not let them say in their heart, “Aha, our desire!”
         Do not let them say, “We have swallowed him up!”

26Let those be ashamed and humiliated altogether who rejoice at my distress;
         Let those be clothed with shame and dishonor who magnify themselves over me.

27Let them shout for joy and rejoice, who favor my vindication;
         And let them say continually, “The LORD be magnified,
         Who delights in the prosperity of His servant.”

28And my tongue shall declare Your righteousness
         And Your praise all day long.
