17 I pray only to you.
    Don't disappoint me.
Disappoint my cruel enemies
until they lie silent
    in their graves.
18 Silence those proud liars!
Make them stop bragging
    and insulting your people.

19 You are wonderful,
    and while everyone watches,
you store up blessings for all
    who honor and trust you.

18 Let their lying lips(C) be silenced,
    for with pride and contempt
    they speak arrogantly(D) against the righteous.

19 How abundant are the good things(E)
    that you have stored up for those who fear you,
that you bestow in the sight of all,(F)
    on those who take refuge(G) in you.
