Psalms 109:21

PrayerGod's loveMercy and compassionProtection and safety

19 May it be like a robe wrapped about him, like a belt tied forever around him.

20 May this be the LORD’s reward to my accusers, to those who speak evil against me.

But You, O GOD, the Lord, deal kindly with me for the sake of Your name; deliver me by the goodness of Your loving devotion.

22 For I am poor and needy; my heart is wounded within me.

23 I am fading away like a lengthening shadow; I am shaken off like a locust.
