Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head. Those who want to cut me off, being my enemies wrongfully, are mighty. I have to restore what I didn't take away.

The ones hating me gratuitously are more than the hairs of my head. The ones destroying me are mighty, my enemies of falsehood. What I did not steal, yet I must restore.
