²⁹ May my accusers be clothed with dishonor;
    may they be wrapped in their own shame as in a mantle.^(A)

¹⁸ His enemies I will clothe with disgrace,
    but on him, his crown will gleam.”^(A)

²² Those who hate you will be clothed with shame,
    and the tent of the wicked will be no more.”^(A)

¹⁰ Then my enemies^[a] will see,
    and shame will cover those^[b] who said to me,
    “Where is the Lord your God?”
My eyes will see their^[c] downfall;^[d]
    now they^[e] will be trodden down
    like the mire of the streets.^(A)

¹¹ But the Lord is with me like a terrifying warrior;
    therefore my persecutors will stumble,
    and they will not prevail.
They will be greatly shamed,
    for they will not succeed.
Their eternal dishonor
    will never be forgotten.^(A)

¹⁷ He loved to curse; let curses come on him.
    He did not like blessing; may it be far from him.^(A)
18 He clothed himself with cursing as his coat;
    may it soak into his body like water,
    like oil into his bones.^(B)
19 May it be like a garment that he wraps around himself,
    like a belt that he wears every day.”
