16
Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted.
17
Relieve the troubles of my heart, and bring me a out of my distress.
18
Consider my affliction and my trouble, and forgive all my sins.
19
Consider how many are my foes, and with what violent hatred they hate me.
20
O guard my life, and deliver me; do not let me be put to shame, for I take refuge in you.
