⁶ Attend unto my cry; for I am brought very low: deliver me from my persecutors; for they are stronger than I.

⁸ O remember not against us former iniquities: let thy tender mercies speedily prevent us: for we are brought very low.

³⁷ Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

³³ Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.

⁷ Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.

³ For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath smitten my life down to the ground; he hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.

³ For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O LORD.

³ He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproach of him that would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.

²⁴ Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our oppression?

²⁵ For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the earth.

²⁶ Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies' sake.

¹⁹ But mine enemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.

¹⁷ He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me: for they were too strong for me.

¹ Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.

¹⁴ After whom is the king of Israel come out? after whom dost thou pursue? after a dead dog, after a flea.
