16As for me, I have not hastenedH213 from being a pastorH7462 to followH310 thee: neither have I desiredH183 the woefulH605 dayH3117; thou knowestH3045: that which came outH4161 of my lipsH8193 was right beforeH5227 theeH6440.1

17Be not a terrorH4288 unto me: thou art my hopeH4268 in the dayH3117 of evilH7451.

18Let them be confoundedH954 that persecuteH7291 me, but let not me be confoundedH954: let them be dismayedH2865, but let not me be dismayedH2865: bringH935 upon them the dayH3117 of evilH7451, and destroyH7665 them with doubleH4932 destructionH7670.2
