Psalm 109:21-31

View Full Chapter

21But you, Sovereign LORD, help me for your name’s sake; out of the goodness of your love, deliver me.

22For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.

23I fade away like an evening shadow; I am shaken off like a locust.

24My knees give way from fasting; my body is thin and gaunt.

25I am an object of scorn to my accusers; when they see me, they shake their heads.

26Help me, LORD my God; save me according to your unfailing love.

27Let them know that it is your hand, that you, LORD, have done it.

28While they curse, may you bless; may those who attack me be put to shame, but may your servant rejoice.

29May my accusers be clothed with disgrace and wrapped in shame as in a cloak.

30With my mouth I will greatly extol the LORD ; in the great throng of worshipers I will praise him. 31For he stands at the right hand of the needy, to save their lives from those who would condemn them.
