Please listen when I pray! Have pity. Answer my prayer.
Don't just condemn me! Point out my sin.
Please listen, LORD God, and answer my prayers. Make my eyes sparkle again, or else I will fall into the sleep of death.
You have turned my sorrow into joyful dancing. No longer am I sad and wearing sackcloth.
I have known only sorrow all my life long, and I suffer year after year. I am weak from sin, and my bones are limp.
You are my God and protector. Please answer my prayer. I was in terrible distress, but you set me free. Now have pity and listen as I pray.
You are my King and my God. Answer my cry for help because I pray to you.
