Those who are all around me proudly raise their heads. May the trouble they planned for me happen to them.

至于那些昂首围困我的人，愿他们嘴唇的奸恶陷害自己！

圍困我的人昂首自高；願他們嘴脣下的毒害淹沒了他們。

昂首而圍我者、願其口之奸惡、反乎己身兮、

彼謗毀四起、欲荼毒予、爾使之自取其戾兮。

為魁首以圍困我者、願其口所出之毒言、反辱己身、

莫容群小。橫行無度。莫容惡計。暢遂無阻。恐長其傲。揚揚闊步。

Those who surround me proudly rear their heads; may the mischief of their lips engulf them.

As for the head of those who surround me, let the mischief of their lips overwhelm them!

Let my enemies be destroyed by the very evil they have planned for me.

When those who surround me rise up, may the trouble their lips cause overwhelm them.

“ As for the head of those who surround me, May the harm of their lips cover them.

As for the heads of those who surround me– may the harm done by their lips overwhelm them!

As for the head of those who surround me, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.

The trouble they cause comes back on them. The terrible things they do will happen to them.

The words of foolish people drag them down. They are trapped by what they say.

Those who do evil are trapped by their sinful talk. But those who have done no wrong escape trouble.

Haman’s wife Zeresh and all his friends said to him,“ Get a pole. In the morning, ask the king to have Mordecai put to death. Have the pole stuck through his body. Set it up at a place where it will be 75 feet above the ground. Everyone will be able to see it there. Then go to the feast with the king. Have a good time.” Haman was delighted with that suggestion. So he got the pole ready.

He will turn their own words against them. He will destroy them. All those who see them will shake their heads and look down on them.

All the people answered,“ Put the blame for his death on us and our children!”

Blessings are like crowns on the heads of those who do right. But the trouble caused by what sinners say destroys them.

He will pay them back for their sins. He will destroy them for their evil acts. The Lord our God will destroy them.

The mouths of those who do right pour out life like a fountain. But the mouths of sinners hide their evil plans.

So they did. And they used the pole Haman had prepared for Mordecai. Then the king’s anger calmed down.
