Jehu son of Hanani the seer went out to confront him and said to King Jehoshaphat, “Should you help the wicked and love those who hate the LORD? Because of this, the wrath of the LORD is upon you.

On the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month of Adar, the king’s command and edict were to be executed. On this day the enemies of the Jews had hoped to overpower them, but their plan was overturned and the Jews overpowered those who hated them.

The Jews put all their enemies to the sword, killing and destroying them, and they did as they pleased to those who hated them.

The rest of the Jews in the royal provinces also assembled to defend themselves and rid themselves of their enemies. They killed 75,000 who hated them, but they did not lay a hand on the plunder.

Your enemies will be clothed in shame, and the tent of the wicked will be no more.”

If I have rejoiced in my enemy’s ruin, or exulted when evil befell him—

Could one who hates justice govern? Will you condemn the just and mighty One,

The boastful cannot stand in Your presence; You hate all workers of iniquity.

Be merciful to me, O LORD; see how my enemies afflict me! Lift me up from the gates of death,

The LORD tests the righteous and the wicked; His soul hates the lover of violence.

He rescued me from my powerful enemy, from foes too mighty for me.

You have made my enemies retreat before me; I destroyed those who hated me.

Your hand will apprehend all Your enemies; Your right hand will seize those who hate You.

Consider my enemies, for they are many, and they hate me with vicious hatred.

I hate the mob of evildoers, and refuse to sit with the wicked.

I hate those who cling to worthless idols, but in the LORD I trust.

Evil will slay the wicked, and the haters of the righteous will be condemned.

Let not my enemies gloat over me without cause, nor those who hate me without reason wink in malice.

For his eyes are too full of conceit to detect or hate his own sin.

Many are my enemies without cause, and many hate me without reason.

All who hate me whisper against me; they imagine the worst for me:

For You save us from our enemies; You put those who hate us to shame.

You have made us retreat from the foe, and those who hate us have plundered us.

You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has anointed you above your companions with the oil of joy.

For you hate My instruction and cast My words behind you.

For it is not an enemy who insults me; that I could endure. It is not a foe who rises against me; from him I could hide.

For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. A song. God arises. His enemies are scattered, and those who hate Him flee His presence.

Those who hate me without cause outnumber the hairs of my head; many are those who would destroy me—my enemies for no reason. Though I did not steal, I must repay.

Rescue me from the mire and do not let me sink; deliver me from my foes and out of the deep waters.

Those who hate the LORD would feign obedience, and their doom would last forever.

See how Your enemies rage, how Your foes have reared their heads.

Show me a sign of Your goodness, that my enemies may see and be ashamed; for You, O LORD, have helped me and comforted me.

I will crush his foes before him and strike down those who hate him.

Hate evil, O you who love the LORD! He preserves the souls of His saints; He delivers them from the hand of the wicked.

I will set no worthless thing before my eyes. I hate the work of those who fall away; it shall not cling to me.

…whose hearts He turned to hate His people, to conspire against His servants.

He saved them from the hand that hated them; He redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.

He delivered them into the hand of the nations, and those who hated them ruled over them.

The LORD is on my side; He is my helper. Therefore I will look in triumph on those who hate me.

I gain understanding from Your precepts; therefore I hate every false way.

The double-minded I despise, but Your law I love.

Therefore I admire all Your precepts and hate every false way.

I hate and abhor falsehood, but Your law I love.

Too long have I dwelt among those who hate peace.

May all who hate Zion be turned back in shame.

Do I not hate those who hate You, O LORD, and detest those who rise against You?

I hate them with perfect hatred; I count them as my enemies.

“How long, O simple ones, will you love your simple ways? How long will scoffers delight in their scorn and fools hate knowledge?

For they hated knowledge and chose not to fear the LORD.
