O Lord, do not let me be humiliated, for I call out to you! May evil men be humiliated! May they go wailing to the grave!
The dead do not praise the Lord, nor do any of those who descend into the silence of death.
In you, O Lord, I have taken shelter! Never let me be humiliated! Vindicate me by rescuing me!
Those who look to him for help are happy; their faces are not ashamed.
May those who want to harm me be totally embarrassed and ashamed! May those who arrogantly taunt me be covered with shame and humiliation!
May those who seek my life be embarrassed and humiliated! May those who plan to harm me be turned back and ashamed!
You make me happier than those who have abundant grain and wine.
May all my enemies be humiliated and absolutely terrified! May they turn back and be suddenly humiliated!
All day long my tongue will also tell about your justice, for those who want to harm me will be embarrassed and ashamed.
O Lord God, invincible warrior! How long will you remain angry at your people while they pray to you?
You uprooted a vine from Egypt; you drove out nations and transplanted it.
If the Lord had not helped me, I would have laid down in the silence of death.
But the Lord is with me to help me like an awe-inspiring warrior. Therefore those who persecute me will fail and will not prevail over me. They will be thoroughly disgraced because they did not succeed. Their disgrace will never be forgotten.
Many of those who sleep in the dusty ground will awake – some to everlasting life, and others to shame and everlasting abhorrence.
He watches over his holy ones, but the wicked are made speechless in the darkness, for it is not by one’s own strength that one prevails.
