14. O God, the proud are risen against me, and the assemblies of violent men have sought after my soul; and have not set you before them.
15. But you, O Lord, are a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in mercy and truth.
16. O turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; give your strength unto your servant, and save the son of your handmaid.
17. Show me a sign for good; that they who hate me may see it, and be ashamed: because you, LORD, have helped me, and comforted me.
