²¹But you, O Lord my Lord, act on my behalf for your name’s sake; because your steadfast love is good, deliver me.

²²For I am poor and needy, and my heart is pierced within me.

²³I am gone like a shadow at evening; I am shaken off like a locust.

²⁴My knees are weak through fasting; my body has become gaunt.

²⁵I am an object of scorn to my accusers; when they see me, they shake their heads.

²⁶Help me, O Lord my God! Save me according to your steadfast love.

²⁷Let them know that this is your hand; you, O Lord, have done it.

²⁸Let them curse, but you will bless. Let my assailants be put to shame; may your servant be glad.

²⁹May my accusers be clothed with dishonor; may they be wrapped in their own shame as in a mantle.

³⁰With my mouth I will give great thanks to the Lord; I will praise him in the midst of the throng.

³¹For he stands at the right hand of the needy, to save them from those who would condemn them to death.
