Psalms 35:26

Contend with My Opponents, O LORD

25Let them not say in their hearts, “Aha, just what we wanted!” Let them not say, “We have swallowed him up!” 26May those who gloat in my distress be ashamed and confounded; may those who exalt themselves over me be clothed in shame and reproach. 27May those who favor my vindication shout for joy and gladness; may they always say, “Exalted be the LORD who delights in His servant’s well-being.”
