8 For when I spoke, I cried out;
aI shouted, “Violence and plunder!”
Because the word of the Lord was made to me
A reproach and a derision daily.
aI shouted, “Violence and plunder!”
Because the word of the Lord was made to me
A reproach and a derision daily.
9 Then I said, “I will not make mention of Him,
Nor speak anymore in His name.”
But His word was in my heart like a aburning fire
Shut up in my bones;
I was weary of holding it back,
And bI could not.
Nor speak anymore in His name.”
But His word was in my heart like a aburning fire
Shut up in my bones;
I was weary of holding it back,
And bI could not.
10 aFor I heard many1 mocking:
“Fear on every side!”
“Report,” they say, “and we will report it!”
bAll my acquaintances watched for my stumbling, saying,
“Perhaps he can be induced;
Then we will prevail against him,
And we will take our revenge on him.”

11 But the Lord is awith me as a mighty, awesome One.
Therefore my persecutors will stumble, and will not bprevail.
They will be greatly ashamed, for they will not prosper.
Their ceverlasting confusion will never be forgotten.

12 But, O Lord of hosts,
You who atest the righteous,
And see the1 mind and heart,
bLet me see Your vengeance on them;
For I have pleaded my cause before You.
