⁶ I have called on you, for you will answer me, God: Turn your ear to me. Hear my speech.

² Because he has turned his ear to me, Therefore I will call on him as long as I live.

⁷ In the day of my trouble I will call on you, For you will answer me.

³ Behold, and answer me, Yahweh, my God. Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death;

⁴ Lest my enemy say, "I have prevailed against him;" Lest my adversaries rejoice when I fall.

¹⁶ As for me, I will call on God. Yahweh will save me.

¹⁹ But most assuredly, God has listened. He has heard the voice of my prayer.

²⁰ Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, Nor his loving kindness from me.

² Let my prayer enter into your presence. Turn your ear to my cry.

¹⁷ Turn your ear, Yahweh, and hear; open your eyes, Yahweh, and behold; and hear all the words of Sennacherib, who has sent to defy the living God.

²⁰ Now therefore, Yahweh our God, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you are Yahweh, even you only.

¹⁷ Now therefore, our God, listen to the prayer of your servant, and to his petitions, and cause your face to shine on your sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord's sake.

¹⁸ My God, turn your ear, and hear; open your eyes, and see our desolations, and the city which is called by your name: for we do not present our petitions before you for our righteousness, but for your great mercies' sake.

¹⁹ Lord, hear; Lord, forgive; Lord, listen and do; don't defer, for your own sake, my God, because your city and your people are called by your name.
