Hear, O Lord, and be gracious to me! O Lord, be my helper!”
But surely, God is my helper; the Lord is the upholder of my life.
Hear my prayer, O Lord; give ear to my supplications in your faithfulness; answer me in your righteousness.
The Lord is my strength and my shield; in him my heart trusts; so I am helped, and my heart exults, and with my song I give thanks to him.
Hear, O Lord, when I cry aloud; be gracious to me and answer me!
I am weary with my moaning; every night I flood my bed with tears; I drench my couch with my weeping.
