23 Make them become blind as bats,Give them the shakes from morning to night.
24 Let them know what you think of them,Blast them with your red-hot anger.
25 Burn down their houses,Leave them desolate with nobody at home.
26 They gossiped about the one you disciplined,Made up stories about anyone wounded by God.
27 Pile on the guilt,Don’t let them off the hook.
28 Strike their names from the list of the living;No rock-carved honor for them among the righteous.
29 I’m hurt and in pain;Give me space for healing, and mountain air.
