19. No one can accuse me of doing wrong.If someone can, I will be quiet and die.
20. “God, please just give me these two things,and then I will not hide from you:
21. Take your punishment away from me,and stop frightening me with your terrors.
22. Then call me, and I will answer,or let me speak, and you answer.
23. How many evil things and sins have I done?Show me my wrong and my sin.
24. Don’t hide your face from me;don’t think of me as your enemy.
25. Don’t punish a leaf that is blown by the wind;don’t chase after straw.
26. You write down cruel things against meand make me suffer for my boyhood sins.
27. You put my feet in chainsand keep close watch wherever I go.You even mark the soles of my feet.
