Turn to me and have mercy on me, because I am lonely and hurting.
I am poor and helpless and very sad.
Look at me and have mercy on me as you do for those who love you.
I am afraid; my courage is gone.
Then I confessed my sins to you and didn’t hide my guilt. I said, “I will confess my sins to the Lord,” and you forgave my guilt.Selah
God, you have rejected us and scattered us. You have been angry, but please come back to us.
Lord, listen to me and answer me. I am poor and helpless.
Turn to me and have mercy. Give me, your servant, strength. Save me, the son of your female servant.
“Now, our God, hear the prayers of your servant. Listen to my prayer for help, and for your sake do good things for your holy place that is in ruins.
You will have mercy on us again; you will conquer our sins. You will throw away all our sins into the deepest part of the sea.
