- Do not withhold your mercy from me, O LORD; may your love and your truth always protect me.
- For troubles without number surround me; my sins have overtaken me, and I cannot see. They are more than the hairs of my head, and my heart fails within me.
- Be pleased, O LORD, to save me; O LORD, come quickly to help me.
- May all who seek to take my life be put to shame and confusion; may all who desire my ruin be turned back in disgrace.
- May those who say to me, "Aha! Aha!" be appalled at their own shame.
|
- You, O LORD, will not withhold Your compassion from me; Your lovingkindness and Your truth will continually preserve me.
- For evils beyond number have surrounded me; My iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to see; They are more numerous than the hairs of my head, And my heart has failed me.
- Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me; Make haste, O LORD, to help me.
- Let those be ashamed and humiliated together Who seek my life to destroy it; Let those be turned back and dishonored Who delight in my hurt.
- Let those be appalled because of their shame Who say to me, "Aha, aha!"
