12. Those who sit at the gate mock me,and I am the song of the drunkards.
13. But I pray to you, Lord,in the time of your favour;in your great love, O God,answer me with your sure salvation.
14. Rescue me from the mire,do not let me sink;deliver me from those who hate me,from the deep waters.
15. Do not let the floodwaters engulf meor the depths swallow me upor the pit close its mouth over me.
16. Answer me, Lord, out of the goodness of your love;in your great mercy turn to me.
17. Do not hide your face from your servant;answer me quickly, for I am in trouble.
18. Come near and rescue me;deliver me because of my foes.
