18 I will give Thee thanks in the kahal rav (great congregation); I will praise Thee among the mighty throng.
19 Let not them that are mine oyevim gloat over me; neither let them wink with the eye that have sinas chinom (baseless hatred) toward me.
20 For they speak not shalom, but they scheme divrei mirmot (deceitful matters) against the rigei eretz (them that are quiet in the land).
21 Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me, and said, Aha, aha, our eye hath seen it.
22 This Thou hast seen, Hashem; keep not silent; Adonoi, be not far from me.
23 Stir up Thyself, and awake to my mishpat, even to my cause, Elohai and Adonoi.
24 Vindicate me, Hashem Elohai, according to Thy tzedakah; and let them not gloat over me.
