51. My eye affects my heart because of all the daughters of my city.
52. My enemies chased me hard, like a bird, without cause.
53. They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and cast a stone upon me.
54. Waters flowed over my head; then I said, I am cut off.
55. I called upon your name, O LORD, out of the lowest dungeon.
56. You have heard my voice: hide not your ear at my breathing, at my cry.
57. You drew near in the day that I called upon you: you said, Fear not.
58. O Lord, you have pleaded the causes of my soul; you have redeemed my life.
59. O LORD, you have seen my wrong: judge you my cause.
60. You have seen all their vengeance and all their plots against me.
61. You have heard their reproach, O LORD, and all their plots against me;
62. The lips of those that rose up against me, and their whispering against me all the day.
63. Behold their sitting down, and their rising up; I am their music.
64. Render unto them a recompense, O LORD, according to the work of their hands.
