But my enemies are chasing me.\par They have crushed my life into the dirt.\par They are pushing me into the dark grave,\par like people who died long ago.\par
Hurry, answer me Lord!\par I have lost my courage.\par Don’t turn away from me.\par Don’t let me die and become like\par the dead people lying in the grave.\par
Lord, hear my prayer for fairness.\par I am calling loudly to you.\par And I am being honest in the things I say.\par So, please listen to my prayer.\par
Who are you chasing? Who is the king of Israel coming to fight against? You are not chasing someone who will hurt you! It is like you are chasing a dead dog or a flea.
