Enemy, don’t ·laugh at [gloat over] me.
    I have fallen, but I will get up again.
I sit in ·the shadow of trouble now [L darkness],
    but the Lord will be a light for me.
I sinned against the Lord,
    so ·he was angry with me [L I will bear the wrath of the Lord],
but he will ·defend my case in court [plead my case].
    He will ·bring about what is right [accomplish justice] for me.
Then he will bring me out into the light,
    and I will see ·him set things right [his righteousness/justice/vindication].
10 Then my enemies will see this,
    and they will be ·ashamed [L covered wth shame],
those who said to me,
    ‘Where is the Lord your God?’
I will ·look down on [gloat over] them.
    They will ·get walked on [be trampled down], like mud in the street.”

Israel Will Rise

Do not gloat over me,(A) my enemy!
    Though I have fallen, I will rise.(B)
Though I sit in darkness,
    the Lord will be my light.(C)
Because I have sinned against him,
    I will bear the Lord’s wrath,(D)
until he pleads my case(E)
    and upholds my cause.
He will bring me out into the light;(F)
    I will see his righteousness.(G)
10 Then my enemy will see it
    and will be covered with shame,(H)
she who said to me,
    “Where is the Lord your God?”(I)
My eyes will see her downfall;(J)
    even now she will be trampled(K) underfoot
    like mire in the streets.
