28 Let them utter a curse, if they will, but You will speak a blessing;
    [when they come to attack,][a] let them know utter shame.
    Then Your servant will celebrate and praise You!
29 Let my enemies be clothed with disgrace and humiliation;
    let them be dressed in a robe of their own shame.
30 I will continually give thanks to the Eternal
    with the praises of my mouth;
    I will praise Him in the company of many.
