For I said, “Don’t let them rejoice over me— those who are arrogant toward me when I stumble.”
For I said, ‘Don’t let them rejoice over me – those who are arrogant towards me when I stumble.’

For I said, “Help, lest they rejoice over me, lest they boast against me when my foot slips.”
Put an end to their arrogance, these who gloat when I am cast down!
Lord, my longings are sitting in plain sight, my groans an old story to you. My heart’s about to break; I’m a burned-out case. Cataracts blind me to God and good; old friends avoid me like the plague. My cousins never visit, my neighbors stab me in the back. My competitors blacken my name, devoutly they pray for my ruin. But I’m deaf and mute to it all, ears shut, mouth shut. I don’t hear a word they say, don’t speak a word in response. What I do, God, is wait for you, wait for my Lord, my God—you will answer! I wait and pray so they won’t laugh me off, won’t smugly strut off when I stumble.
For I said, “Lest otherwise they should rejoice over me. When my foot slips, they magnify themselves against me.”
I said, “Do not let them gloat over me. When my foot slips, do not let them promote themselves at my expense.”
Lord, it is for you that I wait; O Lord, my God, you respond.
For I said, “May they not rejoice over me, Who, when my foot slips, would exalt themselves over me.”
For I said, “May they not rejoice over me, Who, when my foot slips, would magnify themselves against me.”
I place my hope in you, O Lord; you, O Lord, my God, will answer for me.
I said, “Don’t let them laugh at me or brag when I am defeated.”
I have prayed for deliverance, because otherwise they will gloat over me; when my foot slips they will arrogantly taunt me.
I said, “Don’t let my enemies have the joy of seeing me fall. Don’t let them brag when my feet slip.”
For I said, “Do not let them gloat or exalt themselves over me when my feet slip.”
For I said, ‘Do not let them gloat or exalt themselves over me when my feet slip.’
For I said, “Hear me, lest they rejoice over me, Lest, when my foot slips, they exalt themselves against me.”
For I said, “Do not let them be happy and raise themselves up against me when my foot trips.”
I prayed, “Don’t let my enemies gloat over me or rejoice at my downfall.”
For I pray, ‘Only do not let them rejoice over me, those who boast against me when my foot slips.’

For I said, “Don’t let them gloat over me, or exalt themselves over me when my foot slips.”
For I said, (Hear me,) Lest any time mine enemies have joy on me; and the while my feet be moved/and while my feet were moved, they spake great things on me. (For I said, Hear me, lest any time my enemies have joy over me; for when my feet slipped, or stumbled, they spoke many things against me.)
When I said, `Lest they rejoice over me, In the slipping of my foot against me they magnified themselves.
