Psalms 31:9-18

9Be merciful to meH2603, O LORDH3068, forH3588 I am in distressH6887; my eyesH5869 failH6244 from sorrowH3708, my soulH5315 and body as wellH990.10ForH3588 my lifeH2416 is consumedH3615 with griefH3015 and my yearsH8141 with groaningH585; my iniquityH5771 has drainedH3782 my strengthH3581, and my bonesH6106 are wasting awayH6244.11Among allH3605 my enemiesH6887 I amH1961 a disgraceH2781, and among my neighborsH7934 even moreH3966. I am dreadedH6343 by my friendsH3045— they fleeH5074 when they seeH7200 meH4480 on the streetH2351.12I am forgottenH7911 like a dead manH4191, out of mindH3820. I amH1961 like a brokenH6 vesselH3627.13ForH3588 I hearH8085 the slanderH1681 of manyH7227; there is terrorH4032 on every sideH5439. They conspireH3245H3162 against meH5921 and plotH2161 to takeH3947 my lifeH5315.

14But IH589 trustH982 in YouH5921, O LORDH3068;I sayH559, “YouH859 are my GodH430.”15My timesH6256 are in Your handsH3027;deliver meH5337 fromH3027 my enemiesH341and from those who pursue meH7291.16Make Your faceH6440 shineH215 onH5921 Your servantH5650;save meH3467 by Your loving devotionH2617.
17O LORDH3068, let me notH408 be ashamedH954,forH3588 I have called on YouH7121.Let the wickedH7563 be put to shameH954;let them lie silentH1826 in SheolH7585.18May lyingH8267 lipsH8193 be silencedH481—lips that speakH1696 with arroganceH6277 againstH5921 the righteousH6662,full of prideH1346 and contemptH937.
