7 I will be glad and rejoice in Your mercy,
For You have considered my trouble;
You have aknown my soul in adversities,
For You have considered my trouble;
You have aknown my soul in adversities,
9 Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am in trouble;
aMy eye wastes away with grief,
Yes, my soul and my1 body!
aMy eye wastes away with grief,
Yes, my soul and my1 body!
10 For my life is spent with grief,
And my years with sighing;
My strength fails because of my iniquity,
And my bones waste away.
And my years with sighing;
My strength fails because of my iniquity,
And my bones waste away.
11 aI am a1 reproach among all my enemies,
But bespecially among my neighbors,
And am repulsive to my acquaintances;
cThose who see me outside flee from me.
But bespecially among my neighbors,
And am repulsive to my acquaintances;
cThose who see me outside flee from me.
13 aFor I hear the slander of many;
bFear is on every side;
While they ctake counsel together against me,
They scheme to take away my life.

Deliver me from the hand of my enemies,
And from those who persecute me.
Deliver me from the hand of my enemies,
And from those who persecute me.
