14. Spare my life, O God, and save me,and I will gladly proclaim your righteousness.
15. Help me to speak, Lord,and I will praise you.
16. You do not want sacrifices,or I would offer them;you are not pleased with burnt offerings.
17. My sacrifice is a humble spirit, O God;you will not reject a humble and repentant heart.
18. O God, be kind to Zion and help her;rebuild the walls of Jerusalem.
