Into the Fire

May all who gloat over my distress

   be put to shame and confusion;

may all who exalt themselves over me

   be clothed with shame and disgrace.

May those who delight in my vindication

   shout for joy and gladness;

may they always say, "The Lord be exalted,

   who delights in the well-being of his servant."

My tongue will speak of your righteousness

   and of your praises all day long. 

Psalm 35:26-28 (NIV)
