Psalms 35:11-21

11HostileH2555 witnessesH5707 come forwardH6965; they make chargesH7592 I knowH3045 nothing aboutH3808.12They repay meH7999 evilH7451 forH8478 goodH2896, to the bereavementH7908 of my soulH5315.13YetH589 when they were illH2470, I put onH3830 sackclothH8242; I humbledH6031 myselfH5315 with fastingH6685, but my prayersH8605 returnedH7725 unansweredH5921H2436.114I paced aboutH1980 as for my friendH7453 or brotherH251; I was bowed downH7817 with griefH6937, like one mourningH57 for his motherH517.15But when I stumbledH6761, they assembledH622 in gleeH8055; they gathered togetherH622 against meH5921. AssailantsH5222 I did notH3808 knowH3045 slandered meH7167 withoutH3808 ceasingH1826.16Like godlessH2611 jestersH3934 at a feastH4580,2 they gnashedH2786 their teethH8127 at meH5921.

17How longH4100, O LordH136, will You look onH7200?RescueH7725 my soulH5315 from their ravagesH7722,my precious lifeH3173 from these lionsH3715.18Then I will give You thanksH3034 in the greatH7227 assemblyH6951;I will praise YouH1984 among manyH6099 peopleH5971.19Let notH408 my enemiesH341 gloatH8055 over me without causeH8267,nor those who hate meH8130 without reasonH2600 wink in maliceH7169H5869.320ForH3588 they do notH3808 speakH1696 peaceH7965,but they deviseH2803 deceitfulH4820 schemesH1697againstH5921 those who live quietlyH7282 in the landH776.21They gapeH6310H7337 at meH5921 and sayH559,“AhaH1889, ahaH1889! Our eyesH5869 have seenH7200!”
