at the words of the taunters and revilers, at the sight of the enemy and the avenger.
If I am wicked, woe to me! If I am righteous, I cannot lift up my head, for I am filled with disgrace and look upon my affliction.
How long, O God, is the foe to scoff? Is the enemy to revile your name forever?
Remember this, O Lord, how the enemy scoffs, and an impious people reviles your name.
Return sevenfold into the bosom of our neighbors the taunts with which they taunted you, O Lord!
Out of the mouths of babes and infants you have founded a bulwark because of your foes, to silence the enemy and the avenger.
Incline your ear, O Lord, and hear; open your eyes, O Lord, and see; hear all the words of Sennacherib, which he has sent to mock the living God.
