10. For I heard the slander of many, Magor (terror) on every side. Report, say they, let's report him. Kol enosh shelomi watched for my stumbling, saying, Perhaps he will be enticed, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge on him.
11. But Hashem is with me as a Gibbor Aritz (Mighty Warrior): therefore my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail; they shall be greatly ashamed; for they shall not succeed; their kelimat olam (everlasting dishonor) shall never be forgotten.
12. But, Hashem Tzva'os, that tests the tzaddik, and seest the kelayot and the lev, let me see Thy vengeance on them; for unto Thee have I pled my cause.
13. Sing unto Hashem, hallelu Hashem; for He hath saved the nefesh of the evyon (poor) from the yad of evildoers.
14. Arur (cursed) be the day wherein I was born; let not the day wherein immi bore me yehi baruch (be blessed).
15. Arur (cursed) be the ish who brought news to avi, saying, A ben zachar (male child) is born unto thee; making him very glad.
16. And let that ish be as the towns which Hashem overthrew, and relented not; and let him hear the wailing in the boker, and the teru'ah (battle cry) at noontide;
17. Because he slaughtered me not from the womb; or that immi might have been my kever, and olam (forever) her womb enlarged.
18. Why came I forth out of the womb to see amal (trouble, toil) and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
