Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord shall be a light unto me.

I will bear the indignation of the Lord, because I have sinned against him, until he plead my cause, and execute judgment for me: he will bring me forth to the light, and I shall behold his righteousness.

10 Then she that is mine enemy shall see it, and shame shall cover her which said unto me, Where is the Lord thy God? mine eyes shall behold her: now shall she be trodden down as the mire of the streets.

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.
