16. I said, "Don't let my enemies have the joy of seeing me fall. Don't let them brag when my foot slips."
17. I am about to fall. My pain never leaves me.
18. I admit that I have done wrong. I am troubled by my sin.
19. I have many powerful enemies. They are strong and healthy. They hate me without any reason.
20. They pay me back with evil, even though I was good to them. They tell lies about me because I try to do what is good.
21. Lord, don't desert me. My God, don't be far away from me.
