24 Lord my God, judge me with your fairness. Don’t let those people laugh at me.
25 Don’t let them think, “Aha! We got what we wanted!” Don’t let them say, “We destroyed him!”
26 Let my enemies be ashamed and embarrassed— all those who were happy about my troubles. Proud of themselves, they treated me as worthless. So let them be covered with shame and disgrace.
27 To those who want the best for me, I wish them joy and happiness. May they always say, “Praise the Lord, who wants what is best for his servant.”
