24 O Lord my God, do thou me judge After thy [perfect] righteousness; And suffer not them over me Their [boasting] triumph to express.
25 Let them not say insultingly, [Aha] so we would have it be. Let them not proudly boast and say That they have [wholly] swallowed me.
26 Shame and confusion come to them Who at my hurt [and fall] are glad; They that against me vaunt themselves, With shame [cast down] let them be clad.
27 Let all that love my righteous cause, [Gladly] their joy with shouts express, And say, The Lord be magnified, Who loves his [faithful] servants peace.
27 Let all that love my righteous cause, [Gladly] their joy with shouts express, And say, The Lord be magnify'd, Who loves his [faithful] servants peace.
