Heal me, Lord, for my bones are shaking!
17:6 I call to you for you will answer me, O God.
Listen to me!
Hear what I say!

to devour my flesh,
when my adversaries and enemies attack me,
they stumble and fall.
30:3 O Lord, you pulled me up from Sheol;
you rescued me from among those descending into the grave.
30:7 O Lord, in your good favor you made me secure.
Then you rejected me and I was terrified.
31:2 Listen to me!
Quickly deliver me!
Be my protector and refuge,
a stronghold where I can be safe!
31:4 You will free me from the net they hid for me,
for you are my place of refuge.
31:15 You determine my destiny!
Rescue me from the power of my enemies and those who chase me.
32:4 For day and night you tormented me;
you tried to destroy me in the intense heat of summer. (Selah)
34:4 I sought the Lord’s help and he answered me;
he delivered me from all my fears.
35:3 Use your spear and lance against those who chase me!
Assure me with these words: “I am your deliverer!”
35:7 I did not harm them, but they hid a net to catch me
and dug a pit to trap me.
38:4 For my sins overwhelm me;
like a heavy load, they are too much for me to bear.

those who hate me without cause outnumber me.
39:8 Deliver me from all my sins of rebellion!
Do not make me the object of fools’ insults!
40:11 O Lord, you do not withhold your compassion from me.
May your loyal love and faithfulness continually protect me!
41:9 Even my close friend whom I trusted,
he who shared meals with me, has turned against me.

so I can pay them back!”
41:11 By this I know that you are pleased with me,
for my enemy does not triumph over me.

51:7 Sprinkle me with water and I will be pure;
wash me and I will be whiter than snow.
55:2 Pay attention to me and answer me!
I am so upset and distressed, I am beside myself,
56:2 Those who anticipate my defeat attack me all day long.
Indeed, many are fighting against me, O Exalted One.
59:7 Look, they hurl insults at me
and openly threaten to kill me,
for they say,
“Who hears?”
69:16 Answer me, O Lord, for your loyal love is good!
Because of your great compassion, turn toward me!
71:10 For my enemies talk about me;
those waiting for a chance to kill me plot my demise.
73:24 You guide me by your wise advice,
and then you will lead me to a position of honor.
88:18 You cause my friends and neighbors to keep their distance;

those who mock me use my name in their curses.
106:4 Remember me, O Lord, when you show favor to your people!
Pay attention to me, when you deliver,
116:3 The ropes of death tightened around me,
the snares of Sheol confronted me.
I was confronted with trouble and sorrow.
118:11 They surrounded me, yes, they surrounded me.
Indeed, in the name of the Lord I pushed them away.
119:75 I know, Lord, that your regulations are just.
You disciplined me because of your faithful devotion to me.
139:17 How difficult it is for me to fathom your thoughts about me, O God!
How vast is their sum total!
139:24 See if there is any idolatrous tendency in me,
and lead me in the reliable ancient path!
For the music director; a psalm of David.
140:1 O Lord, rescue me from wicked men!
Protect me from violent men,
141:9 Protect me from the snare they have laid for me,
and the traps the evildoers have set.
143:11 O Lord, for the sake of your reputation, revive me!
Because of your justice, rescue me from trouble!
144:7 Reach down from above!
Grab me and rescue me from the surging water,
from the power of foreigners,
144:11 Grab me and rescue me from the power of foreigners,
who speak lies,
and make false promises.
