“O that you, O God, would slay the wicked one! Then even the bloodguilty men will certainly depart from me, Who say things about you according to [their] idea; They have taken up [your name] in a worthless way—your adversaries. Do I not hate those who are intensely hating you, O Jehovah, And do I not feel a loathing for those revolting against you? With a complete hatred I do hate them. They have become to me real enemies.
Search through me, O God, and know my heart. Examine me, and know my disquieting thoughts, And see whether there is in me any painful way, And lead me in the way of time indefinite.”
– Psalms 139:19-24, NWT
