Psalm 31:17–18

O Lord, let me not be put to shame,

for I call upon you;

let the wicked be put to shame;

let them go silently to Sheol.

Let the lying lips be mute,

which speak insolently against the righteous

in pride and contempt.

Let me not be put to shame, Lord,

for I have cried out to you;

but let the wicked be put to shame

and be silent in the realm of the dead.

Let their lying lips be silenced,

for with pride and contempt

they speak arrogantly against the righteous.

Lord, do not let me be disgraced when I call on you.

Let the wicked be disgraced;

let them be quiet in Sheol.

Let lying lips

that arrogantly speak against the righteous

in proud contempt be silenced.

Don’t let me be disgraced, O Lord,

for I call out to you for help.

Let the wicked be disgraced;

let them lie silent in the grave.

Silence their lying lips—

those proud and arrogant lips that accuse the godly.

Let me not be ashamed, O Lord; for I have called upon thee:

Let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave.

Let the lying lips be put to silence;

Which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.
