Psalms 69:28-33

28Erase their names from the Book of Life; don’t let them be counted among the righteous.

29I am suffering and in pain. Rescue me, O God, by your saving power.

30Then I will praise God’s name with singing, and I will honor him with thanksgiving.

31For this will please the Lord more than sacrificing cattle, more than presenting a bull with its horns and hooves.

32The humble will see their God at work and be glad. Let all who seek God’s help be encouraged.

33For the Lord hears the cries of the needy; he does not despise his imprisoned people.
