17. Don’t turn away from your servant. I am in trouble, so hurry and help me!
18. Come save my soul. Rescue me from my enemies.
19. You know the shame I have suffered. You know all my enemies. You saw how they humiliated me.
20. I feel the pain of their insults. The shame makes me feel like dying! I wanted some sympathy, but there was none. I waited for someone to comfort me, but no one came.
21. They gave me poison, not food. They gave me vinegar, not wine.
22. Their tables are covered with food. Let their fellowship meals destroy them.
23. Let them go blind and their backs become weak.
24. Show them how angry you are. Let them feel what your anger can do.
25. Make their homes empty. Don’t let anyone live there.
26. They try to hurt people you have already punished. They tell everyone about the suffering you gave them.
