13. But as for me, my prayer is unto you, O LORD, in an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of your mercy hear me, in the truth of your salvation.
14. Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.
15. Let not the floodwater overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut its mouth upon me.
16. Hear me, O LORD; for your lovingkindness is good: turn unto me according to the multitude of your tender mercies.
17. And hide not your face from your servant; for I am in trouble: hear me speedily.
18. Draw near unto my soul, and redeem it: deliver me because of my enemies.
19. You have known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonor: my adversaries are all before you.
20. Reproach has broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.
21. They gave me also gall for my food; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
