18 Te confesaré en grande congregación; te alabaré entre numeroso pueblo.

19 No se alegren de mí mis enemigos injustos: ni los que me aborrecen sin causa hagan del ojo.

20 Porque no hablan paz; y contra los mansos de la tierra piensan palabras engañosas.

21 Y ensancharon sobre mí su boca; dijeron: ¡Ea, ea, nuestros ojos [lo] han visto!

22 Tú lo has visto, oh Jehová; no calles: Señor, de mí no te alejes.
