I said, O Jehovah, have mercy upon me: Heal my soul; For I have sinned against thee.
Let the priests, the ministers of Jehovah, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare thy people, O Jehovah, and give not thy heritage to reproach, that the nations should rule over them: wherefore should they say among the peoples, Where is their God?
Then mine enemy shall see it, and shame shall cover her who said unto me, Where is Jehovah thy God? Mine eyes shall see (my desire) upon her; now shall she be trodden down as the mire of the streets.
