Their memory perishes from the earth, and they have no name in the street.
they will perish forever like their own dung; those who have seen them will say, ‘Where are they?’
All day long my enemies taunt me; those who deride me use my name for a curse.
Those who seek my life lay their snares; those who seek to hurt me speak of ruin and meditate on treachery all day long.
You desire truth in the inward being; therefore teach me wisdom in my secret heart.
my enemies trample on me all day long, for many fight against me. O Most High,
that your way may be known upon earth, your saving power among all nations.
Turn to me and be gracious to me; give your strength to your servant; save the child of your maidservant.
The memory of the righteous is a blessing, but the name of the wicked will rot.
