Consider mine affliction,and deliver me:
For I do not forget thy law.
Plead my cause, and deliver me:
Quicken me according to thy word.
Consider how I love thy precepts:
Quicken me,Lord according to thy lovingkindness.
Thy word is true from the beginning.
I rejoice at thy word.
May the Lord be with you in your time of need.
