24 You are righteous, O Lord, so declare me innocent;don't let my enemies gloat over me.
25 Don't let them say to themselves,“We are rid of him!That's just what we wanted!”
26 May those who gloat over my sufferingbe completely defeated and confused;may those who claim to be better than I ambe covered with shame and disgrace.
27 May those who want to see me acquittedshout for joy and say again and again,“How great is the Lord!He is pleased with the success of his servant.”
28 Then I will proclaim your righteousness,and I will praise you all day long.
