¹⁷ But I am poor and needy; May the Lord think about me. You are my help and my deliverer. Don't delay, my God.

¹⁷ The poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue fails for thirst; I, Yahweh, will answer them, I, the God of Israel, will not forsake them.

⁵ But I am poor and needy. Come to me quickly, God. You are my help and my deliverer. Yahweh, don't delay.

⁷ casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.

⁶ So that with good courage we say, "The Lord is my helper. I will not fear. What can man do to me?"

⁵ Many, Yahweh, my God, are the wonderful works which you have done, And your thoughts which are toward us. They can't be set in order to you; If I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.

⁶ This poor man cried, and Yahweh heard him, And saved him out of all his troubles.

⁴ Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is the one who sustains my soul.

²⁰ He who testifies these things says, "Yes, I come quickly." Amen! Yes, come, Lord Jesus.

²³ Who, when he was cursed, didn't curse back. When he suffered, didn't threaten, but committed himself to him who judges righteously;

⁵ Listen, my beloved brothers. Didn't God choose those who are poor in this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the Kingdom which he promised to those who love him?

⁹ For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that you through his poverty might become rich.

²⁰ Jesus said to him, "The foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head."

⁷ For the Lord Yahweh will help me; therefore I have not been confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be disappointed.

⁸ He is near who justifies me; who will bring charges against me? Let us stand up together: who is my adversary? Let him come near to me.

⁹ Behold, the Lord Yahweh will help me; who is he who shall condemn me? Behold, all they shall wax old as a garment, the moth shall eat them up.

⁷ Hurry to answer me, Yahweh. My spirit fails. Don't hide your face from me, So that I don't become like those who go down into the pit.

⁸ Cause me to hear your loving kindness in the morning, For I trust in you. Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, For I lift up my soul to you.

²² For I am poor and needy. My heart is wounded within me.

¹ > Hear, Yahweh, and answer me, For I am poor and needy.

³³ For Yahweh hears the needy, And doesn't despise his captive people.
