3
You are indeed my rock and my fortress; for your name's sake lead me and guide me,
4
take me out of the net that is hidden for me, for you are my refuge.
5
Into your hand I commit my spirit; you have redeemed me, O Lord, faithful God.
6
You hate those who pay regard to worthless idols, but I trust in the Lord.
7
I will exult and rejoice in your steadfast love, because you have seen my affliction; you have taken heed of my adversities,
8
and have not delivered me into the hand of the enemy; you have set my feet in a broad place.
9
Be gracious to me, O Lord, for I am in distress; my eye wastes away from grief, my soul and body also.
10
For my life is spent with sorrow, and my years with sighing; my strength fails because of my misery, and my bones waste away.
11
I am the scorn of all my adversaries, a horror to my neighbors, an object of dread to my acquaintances; those who see me in the street flee from me.
12
I have passed out of mind like one who is dead; I have become like a broken vessel.
13
For I hear the whispering of many— terror all around!— as they scheme together against me, as they plot to take my life.
