- Answer me, O LORD, for Your lovingkindness is good; According to the greatness of Your compassion, turn to me,
- And do not hide Your face from Your servant, For I am in distress; answer me quickly.
- Oh draw near to my soul and redeem it; Ransom me because of my enemies!
- You know my reproach and my shame and my dishonor; All my adversaries are before You.
- Reproach has broken my heart and I am so sick And I looked for sympathy, but there was none, And for comforters, but I found none.
|
- Answer me, O LORD, out of the goodness of your love; in your great mercy turn to me.
- Do not hide your face from your servant; answer me quickly, for I am in trouble.
- Come near and rescue me; redeem me because of my foes.
- You know how I am scorned, disgraced and shamed; all my enemies are before you.
- Scorn has broken my heart and has left me helpless; I looked for sympathy, but there was none, for comforters, but I found none.

- They also gave me gall for my food And for my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
- May their table before them become a snare; And when they are in peace, may it become a trap.
- May their eyes grow dim so that they cannot see, And make their loins shake continually.
- Pour out Your indignation on them, And may Your burning anger overtake them.
- May their camp be desolate; May none dwell in their tents.
|
- They put gall in my food and gave me vinegar for my thirst.
- May the table set before them become a snare; may it become retribution and a trap.
- May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see, and their backs be bent forever.
- Pour out your wrath on them; let your fierce anger overtake them.
- May their place be deserted; let there be no one to dwell in their tents.
|
- For they have persecuted him whom You Yourself have smitten, And they tell of the pain of those whom You have wounded.
- Add iniquity to their iniquity, And may they not come into Your righteousness.
- May they be blotted out of the book of life And may they not be recorded with the righteous.
|
- For they persecute those you wound and talk about the pain of those you hurt.
- Charge them with crime upon crime; do not let them share in your salvation.
- May they be blotted out of the book of life and not be listed with the righteous.
