¹⁶ When I said, `Lest they rejoice over me, In the slipping of my foot against me they magnified themselves.

¹⁸ If I have said, `My foot hath slipped,' Thy kindness, O Jehovah, supporteth me.

³⁵ Mine `are' vengeance and recompense, At the due time -- doth their foot slide; For near is a day of their calamity, And haste do things prepared for them.

³ Look attentively; Answer me, O Jehovah, my God, Enlighten mine eyes, lest I sleep in death,

⁴ Lest mine enemy say, `I overcame him,' Mine adversaries joy when I am moved.

²⁴ Judge me according to Thy righteousness, O Jehovah my God, And they do not rejoice over me.

²⁵ They do not say in their heart, `Aha, our desire.' They do not say, `We swallowed him up.'

²⁶ They are ashamed and confounded together, Who are rejoicing at my evil. They put on shame and confusion, Who are magnifying themselves against me.
