If indeed you would exalt yourselves above me and plead my disgrace against me,

你们果然要向我夸大，以我的羞辱为证指责我，

若你们真要向我夸大，以我的羞辱来责备我，

若你们真要向我夸大，以我的羞辱来责备我，

你们若真要妄自尊大，利用我的耻辱来指责我，

你们若真的妄自尊大攻击我，用我的羞辱来证明我的不是，

你們果然要向我誇大，以我的羞辱為證指責我，

若你們真要向我誇大，以我的羞辱來責備我，

若你們真要向我誇大，以我的羞辱來責備我，

你們若真要妄自尊大，利用我的恥辱來指責我，

你們若真的妄自尊大攻擊我，用我的羞辱來證明我的不是，

你們如果真地妄自尊大來抨擊我，以我的羞辱為證來譴責我，

爾若向我誇大、申明我恥、

顧爾妄自誇大、凌辱乎我、不知轉福為禍、圍我以網羅者、乃上帝也。

爾若欲誇大於我、則當申明我可羞之過以責我、

If indeed you would exalt yourselves above me and use my humiliation against me,

Suppose you want to place yourselves above me. Suppose you want to use my shame to prove I’m wrong.

If indeed you magnify yourselves against me and make my disgrace an argument against me,

You think you’re better than I am, using my humiliation as evidence of my sin.

If you really want to appear superior to me and would use my disgrace as evidence against me,

If indeed you exalt yourselves against me And prove my disgrace to me,

If indeed you exalt yourselves against me, And plead my disgrace against me,

If indeed ye will magnify yourselves against me, And plead against me my reproach;

If you really want to appear superior to me and would use my disgrace as evidence against me,

If indeed ye will magnify[ yourselves] against me, and plead against me my reproach:

If indeed you will magnify yourselves against me, and plead against me my reproach,

May those who want to harm me be totally embarrassed and ashamed! May those who arrogantly taunt me be covered with shame and humiliation!

I have prayed for deliverance, because otherwise they will gloat over me; when my foot slips they will arrogantly taunt me.

Indeed, it is not an enemy who insults me, or else I could bear it; it is not one who hates me who arrogantly taunts me, or else I could hide from him.

“ This is what the Lord has done for me at the time when he has been gracious to me, to take away my disgrace among people.”

Her rival wife used to upset her and make her worry, for the LORD had not enabled her to have children.

This is how they will be repaid for their arrogance, for they taunted and verbally harassed the people of the LORD who commands armies.

They said to me,“ The remnant that remains from the exile there in the province are experiencing considerable adversity and reproach. The wall of Jerusalem lies breached, and its gates have been burned down!”

His disciples asked him,“ Rabbi, who committed the sin that caused him to be born blind, this man or his parents?”

Seven women will grab hold of one man at that time. They will say,“ We will provide our own food, we will provide our own clothes; but let us belong to you– take away our shame!”

He answered them,“ Do you think these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered these things?No, I tell you! But unless you repent, you will all perish as well!Or those eighteen who were killed when the tower in Siloam fell on them, do you think they were worse offenders than all the others who live in Jerusalem?

They replied,“ You were born completely in sinfulness, and yet you presume to teach us?” So they threw him out.

The LORD also will deliver the homes of Judah first, so that the splendor of the kingship of David and of the people of Jerusalem may not exceed that of Judah.

By this I know that you are pleased with me, for my enemy does not triumph over me.

My enemies, do not gloat over me! Though I have fallen, I will get up. Though I sit in darkness, the LORD will be my light.
