25 Destroy their campand don't let anyone livein their tents.
26 They cause trouble for peopleyou have already punished;their gossip hurts thoseyou have wounded.
27 Make them guiltier than everand don't forgive them.
28 Wipe their names from the bookof the living;remove them from the listof the innocent.
29 I am mistreated and in pain.Protect me, God,and keep me safe!
30 I will praise the Lord Godwith a songand a thankful heart.
31 This will please the Lordbetter than offering an oxor a full-grown bull.
