But his word was in my heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary with holding back, and I could not stay. 10 For I heard the defaming of many, fear on every side. Report, they say, and we will report it. All my familiar friends watched for my faltering, saying, Perhaps he will be enticed, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge on him. 11 But the LORD is with me as a mighty terrible one: therefore my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail: they shall be greatly ashamed; for they shall not prosper: their everlasting confusion shall never be forgotten. 12 But, O LORD of hosts, who tests the righteous, and sees the reins and the heart, let me see your vengeance on them: for to you have I opened my cause. 13 Sing to the LORD, praise the LORD: for he has delivered the soul of the poor from the hand of evildoers. 14 Cursed be the day wherein I was born: let not the day wherein my mother bore me be blessed. 15 Cursed be the man who brought tidings to my father, saying, A man child is born to you; making him very glad. 16 And let that man be as the cities which the LORD overthrew, and did not repent: and let him hear the cry in the morning, and the shouting at noontime; 17 Because he did not slay me from the womb; or that my mother might have been my grave, and her womb always great with me. 18 Why did I come forth out of the womb to see labor and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
