But the LORD stood by me, like a mighty giant: therefore my persecutors fell, and could do nothing. They shall be sore confounded, for they have done unwisely, they shall have an everlasting shame. And now, O LORD of Hosts, thou righteous searcher which knowest the reins and the very hearts: let me see them punished, for unto thee I commit my cause. Sing unto the LORD, and praise him, for he hath delivered the soul of the oppressed, from the hand of the violent. Cursed be the day wherein I was born! Unhappy be the day, wherein my mother brought me forth! Cursed be the man, that brought my father the tidings, to make him glad, saying, "Thou hast gotten a son." Let it happen unto that man, as to the cities which the LORD turned upside down, when he had long heard the wicked rumor of them; because he slew me not, as soon as I came out of my mother's womb, and because my mother was not my grave herself, that the birth might not have come out, but remained still in her. Wherefore came I forth of my mother's womb? To have experience of labour and sorrow? And to lead my life with shame?
