²⁴ For he has not been unmoved by the pain of him who is troubled; or kept his face covered from him; but he has given an answer to his cry.

⁷ Who in the days of his flesh, having sent up prayers and requests with strong crying and weeping to him who was able to give him salvation from death, had his prayer answered because of his fear of God.

⁶ I was offering my back to those who gave me blows, and my face to those who were pulling out my hair: I did not keep my face covered from marks of shame.

⁷ For the Lord God is my helper; I will not be put to shame: so I have made my face like a rock, and I am certain that he will give me my right.

⁸ He who takes up my cause is near; who will go to law with me? let us come together before the judge: who is against me? let him come near to me.

⁹ See, the Lord God is my helper; who will give a decision against me? truly, all of them will become old like a robe; they will be food for the worm.

⁵ I made my prayer to the Lord in my trouble: and the Lord gave me an answer, and put me in a wide place.

⁶ This poor man's cry came before the Lord, and he gave him salvation from all his troubles.

⁴⁶ And Jesus gave a loud cry and said, Father, into your hands I give my spirit: and when he had said this, he gave up his spirit.

³ The nets of death were round me, and the pains of the underworld had me in their grip; I was full of trouble and sorrow.

⁴ Then I made my prayer to the Lord, saying, O Lord, take my soul out of trouble.

⁵ The Lord is full of grace and righteousness; truly, he is a God of mercy.

⁶ The Lord keeps the simple; I was made low, and he was my saviour.

²⁹ But I am poor and full of sorrow; let me be lifted up by your salvation, O Lord.

³⁰ I will give praise to the name of God with a song; I will give glory to him for what he has done.

³¹ This will be more pleasing to the Lord than an ox, or a young ox of full growth.

³² The poor will see it and be glad: you who are lovers of God, let your hearts have life.

³³ For the ears of the Lord are open to the poor, and he takes thought for his prisoners.

³⁴ Let the heavens and the earth give praise to him, the seas, and everything moving in them.

¹⁷ Let not your face be covered from your servant, for I am in trouble; quickly give me an answer.

¹⁰ All my bones will say, Lord, who is like you? The saviour of the poor man from the hands of the strong, of him who is poor and in need from him who takes his goods.

⁶ But I am a worm and not a man; cursed by men, and looked down on by the people.

² O my God, I make my cry in the day, and you give no answer; and in the night, and have no rest.
