⁵ My enemies say of me in malice,
    “When will he die, and his name perish?”

^7 (A)The memory of the righteous is a blessing,
    but ^(B)the name of the wicked will rot.

⁸ All the day my enemies taunt me;
    those who ^(A)deride me ^(B)use my name for a curse.

⁷ he will perish forever like his own ^(A)dung;
    those who have seen him will say, ^(B)‘Where is he?’

¹⁷ His ^(A)memory perishes from the earth,
    and he has no name in the street.
