20For they do not say words of peace; in their deceit they are designing evil things against the quiet ones in the land.
21Their mouths were open wide against me, and they said, Aha, aha, our eyes have seen it.
22You have seen this, O Lord; be not unmoved: O Lord, be not far from me.
23Be awake, O Lord, be moved to take up my cause, my God and my Lord.
24Be my judge, O Lord my God, in your righteousness; do not let them be glad over me.
25Let them not say in their hearts, So we will have it: let them not say, We have put an end to him.
26Let all those who take pleasure in my troubles be shamed and come to nothing: let those who are lifted up against me be covered with shame and have no honour.
