NET Bible
"I have prayed for deliverance, because otherwise they will gloat over me; when my foot slips they will arrogantly taunt me."
— Psalms 38:16, NET Bible
“For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.”
“For I said, Lest they rejoice over me: When my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me. ”
“For I said, "Don't let them gloat over me, or exalt themselves over me when my foot slips."”
“I said, Let them not be glad over me; when my foot is moved, let them not be lifted up with pride against me.”
“For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.”
But I am like a deaf man– I hear nothing; I am like a mute who cannot speak.
I am like a man who cannot hear and is incapable of arguing his defense.
Yet I wait for you, O LORD! You will respond, O Lord, my God!
I have prayed for deliverance, because otherwise they will gloat over me; when my foot slips they will arrogantly taunt me.
For I am about to stumble, and I am in constant pain.
Yes, I confess my wrongdoing, and I am concerned about my sins.
But those who are my enemies for no reason are numerous; those who hate me without cause outnumber me.
