When

You said through the Holy Spirit, by the mouth of our father David Your servant:

Why did the Gentiles rage
and the peoples plot futile things?

But the Jews became jealous, and they brought together some scoundrels from the marketplace, formed a mob, and started a riot in the city. Attacking Jason’s house, they searched for them to bring them out to the public assembly.

Why do the nations rebel

and the peoples plot in vain?

For they have conspired with one mind;
they form an alliance against You—

along with the persecutions and sufferings that came to me in Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. What persecutions I endured! Yet the Lord rescued me from them all.

Despitefully

But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,

bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.
