15 But you, the Lord God,
    are kind and merciful.
You don't easily get angry,
and your love
    can always be trusted.
16 I serve you, Lord,
and I am the child
    of one of your servants.
Look on me with kindness.
    Make me strong and save me.
17 Show that you approve of me!
Then my hateful enemies
    will feel like fools,
because you have helped
    and comforted me.
