Oppose those who oppose me, Lord,
and fight those who fight against me.
Take your shield and armor
and come to my rescue.
Lift up your spear and block my enemiesโ way.
Assure me that you will save me.
Bring disgrace and confusion
on those who seek my life.
Turn back and humiliate
those who plot against me.
Drive them away like straw in the wind,
with the angel of the Lord pursuing them.
Make their path dark and slippery
as the angel of the Lord chases them.
Without cause they laid a net for me;
without reason they dug a pit for me.
Let destruction come on them suddenly;
let them be caught in the trap they set,
and fall into the pit to their ruin.
Then I will rejoice in the Lord
and be glad because he saves me.
With all my heart I will say,
โLord, there is no one like you.
You rescue the weak from those too strong for them,
the weak and poor from those who rob them.โ
Cruel witnesses testify against me;
they accuse me of things I do not know.
They repay me evil for good,
and leave me like one bereaved.
Yet when they were sick, I put on sackcloth
and humbled myself with fasting.
When my prayers returned unanswered,
I went about mourning
as though for my friend or brother.
I bowed my head in grief
as though weeping for my mother.
But when I stumbled, they gathered in glee;
attackers gathered against me without my knowledge.
They slandered me without ceasing.
Like the ungodly they maliciously mocked;
they gnashed their teeth at me.
How long, Lord, will you look on?
Rescue me from their ravages,
my precious life from these lions.
I will give you thanks in the great assembly;
among the throngs I will praise you.
Do not let those gloat over me
who are my enemies without cause;
do not let those who hate me without reason
maliciously wink the eye.
They do not speak peaceably,
but devise false accusations
against those who live quietly in the land.
They sneer at me and say, โAha! Aha!
With our own eyes we have seen it.โ
Lord, you have seen this; do not be silent.
Do not be far from me, Lord.
Awake, and rise to my defense!
Contend for me, my God and Lord.
Vindicate me in your righteousness, Lord my God;
do not let them gloat over me.
Do not let them think, โAha, just what we wanted!โ
or say, โWe have swallowed him up.โ
May all who gloat over my distress
be put to shame and confusion;
may all who exalt themselves over me
be clothed with shame and disgrace.
May those who delight in my vindication
shout for joy and gladness;
may they always say, โThe Lord be exalted,
who delights in the well-being of his servant.โ
My tongue will proclaim your righteousness,
your praises all day long.
Iโll never forgive Hugo Broos for humiliating our boys and making them look like they canโt perform on the biggest stage. Some of these players have proven themselves time and time again, The players deserve criticism when itโs due, but that lineup and approach set them up to fail. ๐๐ฟ๐ฆ๐๐๐๐ญ๐๐ญ๐๐ญ๐
That Hugo Broos formation is traumatizing me. Every time I close my eyes, I see that lineup. ๐ญ๐
Damn him, man. He set our boys up for failure and made them look like they donโt belong on the big stage
I wonder how Hugo Broos will help the boys regain their confidence because yesterday he sent a message that he doesn't have confidence in his team to beat an average Mexico team at the worlds biggest stage .
The boys looked lost and it was his doing , they probably feel humiliated.
SAFA may as well just fire him immediately , Mkhalele takes over and let the boys play the ball they know .
