13. But I corrected my prayer unto thee, O Lord, in the time of thy good pleasure; O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy saving health.
14. Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not drown; let me be delivered from those that hate me and out of the deep waters.
15. Let not the violent force of the waters overcome me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.
16. Hear me, O Lord, for thy mercy is perceptible, look upon me according to the multitude of thy acts of compassion
17. And hide not thy face from thy slave, for I am in trouble; hear me speedily.
18. Draw near unto my soul and redeem it; deliver me because of my enemies.
19. Thou hast known my reproach and my shame and my dishonour; my adversaries are all before thee.
20. Reproach has broken my heart, and I am full of heaviness, and I looked for some to take pity, but there was no one, and for comforters, but I found none.
21. They also gave me gall for my food; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
22. Let their table become a snare before them, and that which should have been for their prosperity, let it become a stumbling block.
23. Let their eyes be darkened that they see not and make their loins continually to shake.
24. Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.
