15  O Lord, ^wyou know;

remember me and visit me,

and take ^xvengeance for me on my persecutors.

In your forbearance take me not away;

know that for your sake I bear reproach.

18  Let those be put to shame who persecute me,

but let me not be put to shame;

let them be dismayed,

but let me not be dismayed;

bring upon them the day of disaster;

destroy them with double destruction!
