1. Do not remain silent,O God of my praise!
2. For the mouth of the wicked and deceitfulare opened against me;they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.
3. They encircled me with words of hatredand fought against me without cause.
4. In return for my love they are my adversaries,but I give myself to prayer.
5. They have rewarded me evil for goodand hatred for my love.
