they oppress a man and his house,
a man and his inheritance.

19 Hear me, O Lord,
and (D)listen to the voice of my adversaries.
20 (E)Should good be repaid with evil?
Yet (F)they have dug a pit for my life.
(G)Remember how I stood before you
to speak good for them,
to turn away your wrath from them.

he who (C)purses his lips brings evil to pass.
