⁴ I am as one mocked of his neighbour, who calleth upon God, and he answereth him: the just upright man is laughed to scorn.

¹⁰ They have gaped upon me with their mouth; they have smitten me upon the cheek reproachfully; they have gathered themselves together against me.

² Are there not mockers with me? and doth not mine eye continue in their provocation?

³ Suffer me that I may speak; and after that I have spoken, mock on.

30 But now they that are younger than I have me in derision, whose fathers I would have disdained to have set with the dogs of my flock.

1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
