 Hear, O, and have mercy upon me; * O, be my helper.”

You have turned my wailing into dancing; * you have put off my sack&#8209;cloth and clothed me with joy.

Therefore my heart sings to you without ceasing; * O my God, I will give you thanks for ever.

In you, O, have I taken refuge; let me never be put to shame; * deliver me in your righteousness.

Incline your ear to me; * make haste to deliver me.

Be my strong rock, a castle to keep me safe, for you are my crag and my stronghold; * for the sake of your Name, lead me and guide me.

Take me out of the net that they have secretly set for me, * for you are my tower of strength.

Into your hands I commend my spirit, * for you have redeemed me, O, O God of truth.

I hate those who cling to worthless idols, * and I put my trust in the.

I will rejoice and be glad because of your mercy; * for you have seen my affliction; you know my distress.
