16 And not unlike Stage-hypocrites My [cruel] adversaries be; And in their feasts with scoffing jests, They [grind and] gnash their teeth on me.
16 And not unlike Stage-hypocrites My [cruel] adversaries be; And in their feasts with scoffing jeasts, They [grind and] gnash their teeth on me.
17 But Lord, how long wilt thou look on? From [contrived] ruin rescue me; And let my soul, my darling be From [greedy] Lions kept by thee.
17 But Lord, how long wilt thou look on? From [contriv'd] ruin rescue me; And let my soul, my darling be From [greedy] Lions kept by thee.
18 Then I will render thanks to thee, [Even] in [the] Congregations great; And I will celebrate thy praise Where [the strong] multitudes do meet.
19 Let not them over me rejoice, Who hate [and hurt] me wrongfully; Let not my causeless foes triumph, And wink with scornful [scoffing] eye.
