12 Do not withhold your compassion from me, O Lord; ♦︎
let your love and your faithfulness always preserve me,
13 For innumerable troubles have come about me;
my sins have overtaken me so that I cannot look up; ♦︎
they are more in number than the hairs of my head,
and my heart fails me.
14 Be pleased, O Lord, to deliver me; ♦︎
O Lord, make haste to help me.
15 Let them be ashamed and altogether dismayed
who seek after my life to destroy it; ♦︎
let them be driven back and put to shame
who wish me evil.
16 Let those who heap insults upon me ♦︎
be desolate because of their shame.
17 Let all who seek you rejoice in you and be glad; ♦︎
let those who love your salvation say always,
The Lord is great.
18 Though I am poor and needy, ♦︎
the Lord cares for me.
19 You are my helper and my deliverer; ♦︎
O my God, make no delay.
