Psalms 35:24

JusticePrayer

22 O LORD, You have seen it; be not silent. O Lord, be not far from me.

23 Awake and rise to my defense, to my cause, my God and my Lord!

Vindicate me by Your righteousness, O LORD my God, and do not let them gloat over me.

25 Let them not say in their hearts, “Aha, just what we wanted!” Let them not say, “We have swallowed him up!”

26 May those who gloat in my distress be ashamed and confounded; may those who exalt themselves over me be clothed in shame and reproach.
