Psalm 31:16-18
Contemporary English Version
16 Smile on me, your servant.
Have pity and rescue me.
17 I pray only to you.
Don't disappoint me.
Disappoint my cruel enemies
until they lie silent
in their graves.
18 Silence those proud liars!
Make them stop bragging
and insulting your people.

New International Version
16 Let your face shine(A) on your servant;
save me in your unfailing love.(B)

for I have cried out to you;

and be silent(D) in the realm of the dead.

for with pride and contempt
they speak arrogantly(F) against the righteous.
