Vindicate me, Adonai my God, according to Your justice, and do not let them gloat over me.
that the triumph of the wicked is short and the joy of the godless is but for a moment?
Of David. Vindicate me, Adonai, for I have walked in my integrity, and trusted in Adonai without wavering.
I will exalt You, Adonai, for You have lifted me up, and did not let my enemies gloat over me.
Do not let my deceitful enemies gloat over me without cause, nor let those who hate me for nothing wink an eye.
Vindicate me, O God, and champion my cause against an ungodly nation. From a deceitful and unjust man, deliver me!
Let an assembly of peoples gather around You and return on high, above them.
For after all, it is right in the sight of God to pay back trouble to those who trouble you,
“He committed no sin, nor was any deceit found in His mouth.”
