24. Vindicate me in your righteousness, Lord my God;do not let them gloat over me.
25. Do not let them think, ‘Aha, just what we wanted!’or say, ‘We have swallowed him up.’
26. May all who gloat over my distressbe put to shame and confusion;may all who exalt themselves over mebe clothed with shame and disgrace.
27. May those who delight in my vindicationshout for joy and gladness;may they always say, ‘The Lord be exalted,who delights in the well-being of his servant.’
28. My tongue will proclaim your righteousness,your praises all day long.
