⁹ I am broken by his wrath, and his hate has gone after me; he has made his teeth sharp against me: my haters are looking on me with cruel eyes;

¹⁶ All your haters are opening their mouths wide against you; making hisses and whistling through their teeth, they say, We have made a meal of her: certainly this is the day we have been looking for; it has come, we have seen it.

¹⁶ Like men of deceit they put me to shame; the voice of their wrath was loud against me.

²⁴ Why is your face veiled from me, as if I was numbered among your haters?

⁵⁴ Hearing these things, they were cut to the heart and moved with wrath against him.

¹ Come, let us go back to the Lord; for he has given us wounds and he will make us well; he has given blows and he will give help.

¹² The sinner has evil designs against the upright, lifting up the voice of wrath against him.

¹¹ His wrath is burning against me, and I am to him as one of his haters.

⁴ But come back, now, come: you who are wounding yourself in your passion, will the earth be given up because of you, or a rock be moved out of its place?

¹⁶ And that if there was cause for pride, you would go after me like a lion; and again put out your wonders against me:

¹⁷ That you would send new witnesses against me, increasing your wrath against me, and letting loose new armies on me.

⁸ Do not be glad because of my sorrow, O my hater: after my fall I will be lifted up; when I am seated in the dark, the Lord will be a light to me.

¹⁴ For I will be to Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the children of Judah; I, even I, will give him wounds and go away; I will take him away, and there will be no helper.

¹⁰ He is like a bear waiting for me, like a lion in secret places.

²² Now keep this in mind, you who have no memory of God, for fear that you may be crushed under my hand, with no one to give you help:

²⁷ And you put chains on my feet, watching all my ways, and making a limit for my steps;
