Psalms 35:19-28

19Let not those rejoice over me who are wrongfully my foes, and let not those wink the eye who hate me without cause.

20For they do not speak peace, but against those who are quiet in the land they devise words of deceit.

21They open wide their mouths against me; they say, "Aha, Aha! Our eyes have seen it!"

22You have seen, O Lord; be not silent! O Lord, be not far from me!

23Awake and rouse yourself for my vindication, for my cause, my God and my Lord!

24Vindicate me, O Lord, my God, according to your righteousness, and let them not rejoice over me!

25Let them not say in their hearts, "Aha, our heart's desire!" Let them not say, "We have swallowed him up."

26Let them be put to shame and disappointed altogether who rejoice at my calamity! Let them be clothed with shame and dishonor who magnify themselves against me!

27Let those who delight in my righteousness shout for joy and be glad and say evermore, "Great is the Lord, who delights in the welfare of his servant!"

28Then my tongue shall tell of your righteousness and of your praise all the day long.
