56. Hear my voice. Don’t close your ear to my need for relief, to my cry for help.
57. Come near to me on the day I call to you. Say to me, "Don’t be afraid."
58. My Lord! Plead my desperate case; redeem my life.
59. Lord, look at my mistreatment; judge my cause.
60. Look at all of my enemies’ vengeance, all of their scheming against me.
61. Hear their jeering, Lord, all of their scheming against me,
62. the speech of those who rise up against me, their incessant gossiping about me.
63. Whether sitting or standing, look at how I am the object of their song of ridicule.
64. Pay them back fully, Lord, according to what they have done.
