Read this passage and open each verse for the full verse feed and commentary tools.

21But You, God, the Lord, deal kindly with me for the sake of Your name;

Because Your mercy is good, rescue me;

22For I am afflicted and needy,

And my heart is wounded within me.

23I am passing like a shadow when it lengthens;

I am shaken off like the locust.

24My knees are weak from fasting,

And my flesh has grown lean, without fatness.

25I also have become a disgrace to them;

When they see me, they shake their head.

26Help me, Lord my God;

Save me according to Your mercy.

27And may they know that this is Your hand;

You, Lord, have done it.

28They will curse, but You bless;

When they arise, they will be ashamed,

But Your servant will be glad.

29May my accusers be clothed with dishonor,

And may they cover themselves with their own shame as with a robe.

30With my mouth I will give thanks abundantly to the Lord;

And I will praise Him in the midst of many.

31For He stands at the right hand of the needy,

To save him from those who judge his soul.
