19. If only, God, you would kill the wicked!If only murderers would get away from me—
20. the people who talk about you, but only for wicked schemes;the people who are your enemies,who use your name as if it were of no significance.
21. Don’t I hate everyone who hates you?Don’t I despise those who attack you?
22. Yes, I hate them—through and through!They’ve become my enemies too.
23. Examine me, God! Look at my heart!Put me to the test! Know my anxious thoughts!
