19 O God, how I wish you would kill the wicked!How I wish violent people would leave me alone!
20 They say wicked things about you;they speak evil things against your name.
21 O Lord, how I hate those who hate you!How I despise those who rebel against you!
22 I hate them with a total hatred;I regard them as my enemies.
23 Examine me, O God, and know my mind;test me, and discover my thoughts.
24 Find out if there is any evil in meand guide me in the everlasting way.
