12 Adonai-Tzva’ot, you who test the righteous
and see people’s hearts and thoughts,
let me see you take vengeance on them,
for I have committed my cause to you.

13 Sing to Adonai! Praise Adonai!
For he rescues those in need
from the clutches of evildoers.

14 A curse on the day I was born!
The day my mother gave birth to me —
let it not be blessed!
