They sneer at me and say, “Aha! Aha! With our own eyes we have seen it.”

Do not let them think, “Aha, just what we wanted!” or say, “We have swallowed him up.”

They open wide their mouths against me; they say, “Aha, Aha! Our eyes have seen it!”

Let them not say in their hearts, “Aha, our heart’s desire!” Let them not say, “We have swallowed him up.”

They shout, “Aha! Aha! With our own eyes we saw him do it!”

Don’t let them say, “Look, we got what we wanted! Now we will eat him alive!”

They open their mouths wide against me and say, “Aha, aha! We saw it! ” 

Do not let them say in their hearts, “Aha! Just what we wanted.” Do not let them say, “We have swallowed him up! ”

Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me, And said, Aha, aha, our eye hath seen it.

Let them not say in their hearts, Ah, so would we have it: Let them not say, We have swallowed him up.

They also opened their mouth wide against me, And said, “Aha, aha! Our eyes have seen it.”

Let them not say in their hearts, “Ah, so we would have it!” Let them not say, “We have swallowed him up.”

Don’t let these liars, my enemies, have a party at my expense, Those who hate me for no reason, winking and rolling their eyes. No good is going to come from that crowd; They spend all their time cooking up gossip against those who mind their own business. They open their mouths in ugly grins, Mocking, “Ha-ha, ha-ha, thought you’d get away with it? We’ve caught you hands down!”

Please get up—wake up! Tend to my case. My God, my Lord—my life is on the line. Do what you think is right, GOD, my God, but don’t make me pay for their good time. Don’t let them say to themselves, “Ha-ha, we got what we wanted.” Don’t let them say, “We’ve chewed him up and spit him out.” Let those who are being hilarious at my expense Be made to look ridiculous. Make them wear donkey’s ears; Pin them with the donkey’s tail, who made themselves so high and mighty!

They opened their mouth wide against me; They said, “Aha, aha! Our eyes have seen it!”

Do not let them say in their heart, “Aha, our desire!” Do not let them say, “We have swallowed him up!”

They open their mouths wide against me; They say, “Aha, aha, our eyes have seen it!”

Do not let them say in their heart, “Aha, that is what we wanted!” Do not let them say, “We have swallowed him up and destroyed him.”

They are ready to devour me; they say, “Aha! Aha! We’ve got you!”

Do not let them say to themselves, “Aha! We have what we wanted!” Do not let them say, “We have devoured him!”
