8Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping. | 8Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity, for the LORD has heard my weeping. |
9The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer. | 9The LORD has heard my cry for mercy; the LORD accepts my prayer. |
10Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly. | 10All my enemies will be ashamed and dismayed; they will turn back in sudden disgrace. |
