48. Channels of water run down my eyes because of the destruction of the daughter of my people.
49. My eyes have poured down unceasingly without respite,
50. until Yahweh looks down and sees from heaven.
51. My eyes inflict my soul because of all the daughters of my city.
52. My enemies hunt me without cause, like a bird.

55. I have called your name, O Yahweh, from the depths of the pit.
56. You have heard my cry, “Do not shut your ear to my cry for help, for my relief!”

58. O Lord, you have pleaded for my cause, you have redeemed my life.
59. You have seen my injustice, O Yahweh; judge my case.

66. Pursue them in anger and destroy them from under the heavens of Yahweh.
