And my tongue will talk of your righteous help all the day long, for they have been put to shame and disappointed who sought to do me hurt.
May my accusers be put to shame and consumed; with scorn and disgrace may they be covered who seek my hurt.
I pursued my enemies and overtook them, and did not turn back till they were consumed. I thrust them through, so that they were not able to rise; they fell under my feet. For you equipped me with strength for the battle; you made those who rise against me sink under me. You made my enemies turn their backs to me, and those who hated me I destroyed. They cried for help, but there was none to save; they cried to the Lord, but he did not answer them.
For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet.
My eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies; my ears have heard the doom of my evil assailants.
Then my tongue shall tell of your righteousness and of your praise all the day long.
Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.
The good person out of his good treasure brings forth good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure brings forth evil.
The tongue of the righteous is choice silver; the heart of the wicked is of little worth. The lips of the righteous feed many, but fools die for lack of sense.
My mouth will tell of your righteous acts, of your deeds of salvation all the day, for their number is past my knowledge.
My mouth is filled with your praise, and with your glory all the day.
The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom, and his tongue speaks justice.
You shall teach them to your children, talking of them when you are sitting in your house, and when you are walking by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise.
