16I have not run away from being your shepherd,
nor have I desired the day of sickness.
xYou know xwhat came out of my lips;
it was before your face.
17Be not a terror to me;
yyou are my refuge in the day of disaster.
18zLet those be put to shame who persecute me,
but let me not be put to shame;
zlet them be dismayed,
but let me not be dismayed;
abring upon them the day of disaster;
destroy them with double destruction!

I have not run away from being your shepherd;
you know I have not desired the day of despair.
What passes my lips is open before you.

NLTNew Living Translation
Lord, I have not abandoned my job
as a shepherd for your people.
I have not urged you to send disaster.
You have heard everything I’ve said.
Lord, don’t terrorize me!
You alone are my hope in the day of disaster.
Bring shame and dismay on all who persecute me,
but don’t let me experience shame and dismay.
Bring a day of terror on them.
Yes, bring double destruction upon them!

LEBThe Lexham English Bible
But I, I have not run away from being a shepherd who follows you,
and I have not desired the disastrous day.
You, you know the pronouncement of my lips,
it was before your face.
You must not become to me a terror,
you are my refuge in the day of disaster.
Let my persecutors be put to shame,
but as for me, do not let me be put to shame.
Let them be dismayed,
but as for me, do not let me be dismayed.
Bring on them the day of disaster,
and with double destruction, destroy them.

KJV 1900King James Version
As for me, I have not hastened from being a pastor to follow thee: neither have I desired the woeful day; thou knowest: that which came out of my lips was right before thee. Be not a terror unto me: thou art my hope in the day of evil. Let them be confounded that persecute me, but let not me be confounded: let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed: bring upon them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction.
