Psalms 109:21-31

21But dealH6213 thou with meH5337, O GODH136 the LordH136, for thy name’sH8034 sakeH4616: becauseH3588 thy mercy is goodH2896, deliverH5337 thou meH5337,

22For I am poorH6041 and needyH34, and my heartH3820 is woundedH2490 withinH7130 meH7130.

23I am goneH1980 like the shadowH6738 when it declineth: I am tossed up and downH5186 as the locustH697.

24My kneesH1290 are weakH3782 through fastingH6685; and my fleshH1320 faileth of fatnessH8081.

25I am becomeH1961 also a reproachH2781 unto them: when they seeH7200 meH7200, they shakeH5128 their headH7218.

26HelpH5826 meH3467, O LORDH3068 my GodH430; O saveH3467 meH3467 according to thy mercyH3068:

27That they may knowH3045 that this is thy handH3027; that thou, LORDH3068, hast doneH6213 it.

28LetH8055 them curseH7043, but blessH1288 thou: when they ariseH6965, they shall be ashamedH954, but thy servantH5650 shall rejoiceH8055.

29Let mine adversariesH7853 be clothedH3847 with dishonour, and let them coverH5844 themselves with their own shameH1322 as with a mantleH4598.

30I will giveH3034 greatH3966 thanksH3034 unto the LORDH3068 with my mouthH6310; yea, I will praiseH1984 him among the multitude.

31For he shall standH5975 at the rightH3225 handH3225 of the needyH34, to saveH3467 him from them that judgeH8199 his soulH5315.
