Psalms 35:15-21

ISV(i) 15 But when I stumbled, they rejoiced and gathered together. They gathered together against me— attackers whom I did not know. They tore me apart and would not stop. 16 Malicious mockers— they gnashed their teeth against me. 17 Lord, how long will you just watch? Rescue me from their destruction, my precious life from these young lions. 18 Then I will give you thanks in front of the great congregation; in the midst of the mighty throng I will praise you. 19 Do not let my deceitful enemies gloat over me, nor let those who hate me without justification mock me with their eyes. 20 For they do not speak peace; they devise clever lies against the peaceful people of the land. 21 They open their mouth wide against me, claiming, “Yes! Yes! We saw him do it with our own eyes!”
