Psalm 109:21-31
But Lord and King,
help me so that you bring honor to yourself.
Because your love is so good, save me.
I am poor and needy.
My heart is wounded deep down inside me.
I fade away like an evening shadow.
I’m like a locust that someone brushes off.
My knees are weak because I’ve gone without food.
My body is very thin.
Those who bring charges against me laugh at me.
When they see me, they shake their heads at me.
Lord my God, help me.
Save me because of your faithful love.
Lord, let my enemies know that you yourself have saved me.
You have done it with your own hand.
They may curse me.
But may you bless me.
May those who attack me be put to shame.
But may I be filled with joy.
May those who bring charges against me be clothed with dishonor.
May they be wrapped in shame as if it were a coat.
With my mouth I will continually praise the Lord.
I will praise him when all his people gather for worship.
He stands ready to help those who need it.
He saves them from those who are ready to sentence them to death.
