My enemy is getting even with insults and curses.
How terrible it will be for me if I am guilty! Even if I am right, I cannot lift my head. I am full of shame and experience only pain.
God, how much longer will the enemy make fun of you? Will they insult you forever?
Lord, remember how the enemy insulted you. Remember how those foolish people made fun of you.
Repay those around us seven times over for their insults to you, Lord.
You have taught children and babies to sing praises to you because of your enemies. And so you silence your enemies and destroy those who try to get even.
Hear, Lord, and listen. Open your eyes, Lord, and see. Listen to all the words Sennacherib has said to insult the living God.
