The Lord God helps me learn.
    And I have not turned against him.
    I have not stopped following him.
I offered my back to those who beat me.
    I offered my cheeks to those who pulled my beard.
I won’t hide my face from them
    when they make fun of me and spit at me.
The Lord God helps me.
    So I will not be ashamed.
I will be determined.
    I know I will not be disgraced.
