Psalms 35:21-25

21They open their mouths wide to speak against me. They say, ‘Aha! We have seen the bad things that you do!’

22Lord, you have seen all this. Do not remain silent, my Lord. Do not stay far away from me.

23Wake up! Get ready to give me justice! Show that I am not guilty, my Lord and my God.

24Lord, you are righteous. Give me justice, my God. Do not let them laugh at me.

25Do not let them say, ‘Aha! This is what we wanted.’ Do not let them say, ‘We have eaten him alive!’
