My enemies speak evil of me, saying, When will he die and his name perish?
The memory of the righteous one is for a blessing, but the name of the wicked ones shall rot.
My enemies reproach me all the day; those who rave against me have sworn against me.
And those seeking my life lay a snare; yea, those seeking my evil speak destruction, and they utter deceits all the day.
he shall perish forever like his dung; they who see him shall say, Where is he?
His memory perishes from the earth, and there is no name to him on the face of the street.
For I know my transgressions; and my sin is ever before me.
Behold, You desire truth in the inward parts; and in the secret part You teach me wisdom.
My watchers panted for me all the day; for many are proudly fighting against me.
I will cry to God Most High, to God who works for me.
That Your way may be known on earth, Your salvation among all nations.
Be gracious to Me, O Lord, for I cry to You all the day.
O turn to me and be gracious to me; give Your strength to Your servant, and save the son of Your handmaid.
