¹⁶ I said, Let them not be glad over me; when my foot is moved, let them not be lifted up with pride against me.

¹⁸ If I say, My foot is slipping; your mercy, O Lord, is my support.

³⁵ Punishment is mine and reward, at the time of the slipping of their feet: for the day of their downfall is near, sudden will be their fate.

³ Let my voice come before you, and give me an answer, O Lord my God; let your light be shining on me, so that the sleep of death may not overtake me;

⁴ And he who is against me may not say, I have overcome him; and those who are troubling me may not be glad when I am moved.

²⁴ Be my judge, O Lord my God, in your righteousness; do not let them be glad over me.

²⁵ Let them not say in their hearts, So we will have it: let them not say, We have put an end to him.

²⁶ Let all those who take pleasure in my troubles be shamed and come to nothing: let those who are lifted up against me be covered with shame and have no honour.
