All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,

My tears have been my meat day and night, while they continually say unto me, Where is thy God?

As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me; while they say daily unto me, Where is thy God?

Saying, God hath forsaken him: persecute and take him; for there is none to deliver him.

And thus said Shimei when he cursed, Come out, come out, thou bloody man, and thou man of Belial:

The LORD hath returned upon thee all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead thou hast reigned; and the LORD hath delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom thy son: and, behold, thou art taken in thy mischief, because thou art a bloody man.

He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.

He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.

I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.

Salvation belongeth unto the LORD: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.

O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame? how long will ye love vanity, and seek after leasing? Selah.

Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.

God came from Teman, and the Holy One from mount Paran. Selah. His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his praise.

Thy bow was made quite naked, according to the oaths of the tribes, even thy word. Selah. Thou didst cleave the earth with rivers.

Thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy people, even for salvation with thine anointed; thou woundedst the head out of the house of the wicked, by discovering the foundation unto the neck. Selah.
