24Judge me, O Jehovah my God, according to thy righteousness; And let them not rejoice over me. 25Let them not say in their heart, Aha, so would we have it: Let them not say, We have swallowed him up. Let them be put to shame and confounded together that rejoice at my hurt: Let them be clothed with shame and dishonor that magnify themselves against me. 27Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favor my righteous cause: Yea, let them say continually, Jehovah be magnified, Who hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant. 28And my tongue shall talk of thy righteousness Andof thy praise all the day long.
