But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.
They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine head: they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away.
He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers;
But mine enemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; and those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.
He that winketh with the eye causeth sorrow: but a prating fool shall fall.
For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.
They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against me without a cause.
Mine enemies chased me sore, like a bird, without cause.
Princes have persecuted me without a cause: but my heart standeth in awe of thy word.
But in mine adversity they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together: yea, the abjects gathered themselves together against me, and I knew it not; they did tear me, and ceased not:
Why doth thine heart carry thee away? and what do thy eyes wink at,
O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.
