When my soul was embittered, when I was pricked in heart,
Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way, over the man who carries out evil devices!
He drove into my kidneys the arrows of his quiver;
For I was envious of the arrogant when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
his archers surround me. He slashes open my kidneys and does not spare; he pours out my gall on the ground.
Of David. Fret not yourself because of evildoers; be not envious of wrongdoers!
