Psalm 86:14-16

New Century Version

¹⁴ God, proud people are attacking me;
    a gang of cruel people is trying to kill me.
    They do not respect you.
¹⁵ But, Lord, you are a God who shows mercy and is kind.
    You don’t become angry quickly.
    You have great love and faithfulness.
¹⁶ Turn to me and have mercy.
    Give me, your servant, strength.
    Save me, the son of your female servant.
