2. For mouths of wicked men to speakagainst me do not cease:The mouths of vile deceitful menagainst me open'd be;And with a false and lying tonguethey have accused me.
3. They did beset me round aboutwith words of hateful spight:And though to them no cause I gave,against me they did fight.
4. They for my love became my foes,but I me set to pray.
5. Evil for good, hatred for love,to me they did repay.
6. Set thou the wicked over him;and upon his right handGive thou his greatest enemy,ev'n Satan, leave to stand.
