TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. O God of my praise, do not be silent, For the mouth of wickedness, and the mouth of deceit, || They have opened against me, || They have spoken with me—A tongue of falsehood, and words of hatred! Mrk 14:56They have surrounded me about, || And they fight me without cause. For my love they oppose me, and I—prayer! Psa 120:7; Jhn 8:40And they set against me evil for good, || And hatred for my love. Psa 35:12; Jer 18:20Appoint the wicked over him, || And an adversary stands at his right hand. Job 17:8In his being judged, he goes forth wicked, || And his prayer is for sin. His days are few, another takes his oversight, Jhn 17:12; Act 1:20His sons are fatherless, and his wife a widow. Deu 28:32And his sons wander continually, || Indeed, they have begged, || And have sought out of their dry places. Job 20:10An exactor lays a snare for all that he has, || And strangers spoil his labor. Deu 28:43He has none to extend kindness, || Nor is there one showing favor to his orphans. His posterity is for cutting off, || Their name is blotted out in another generation. Exo 20:5; Job 18:19; Isa 14:22The iniquity of his fathers || Is remembered to YHWH, || And the sin of his mother is not blotted out. Exo 20:5; Jer 18:23They are continually before YHWH, || And He cuts off their memorial from earth. Pro 10:7; Mat 27:25Because that he has not remembered to do kindness, || And pursues the poor man and needy, || And the struck of heart—to slay, Job 24:20; Jas 2:13And he loves reviling, and it meets him, || And he has not delighted in blessing, || And it is far from him. Pro 11:27And he puts on reviling as his robe, || And it comes in as water into his midst, || And as oil into his bones. It is to him as apparel—he covers himself, || And he girds it on for a continual girdle. This [is] the wage of my accusers from YHWH, || And of those speaking evil against my soul. And You, O Lord YHWH, || Deal with me for Your Name’s sake, || Because Your kindness [is] good, deliver me. For I [am] poor and needy, || And my heart has been pierced in my midst. I have gone as a shadow when it is stretched out, || I have been driven away as a locust. Job 14:2; Psa 144:4My knees have been feeble from fasting, || And my flesh has failed of fatness. And I have been a reproach to them, || They see me, they shake their head. Psa 22:7; Mat 27:29Help me, O YHWH my God, || Save me, according to Your kindness. And they know that this [is] Your hand, || You, O YHWH, You have done it. Psa 64:9They revile, and You bless, || They have risen, and are ashamed, || And Your servant rejoices. Mat 5:44; 1Co 4:12My accusers put on blushing, and are covered, || Their shame [is] as an upper robe. I thank YHWH greatly with my mouth, || And I praise Him in the midst of many, Psa 22:22For He stands at the right hand of the needy, || To save from those judging his soul.Act 2:25
