28. May their names be deleted from the scroll of the living!Do not let their names be listed with the godly!
29. I am oppressed and suffering!O God, deliver and protect me!
30. I will sing praises to God’s name!I will magnify him as I give him thanks!
31. That will please the Lord more than an ox or a bullwith horns and hooves.
32. The oppressed look on – let them rejoice!You who seek God, may you be encouraged!
33. For the Lord listens to the needy;he does not despise his captive people.
34. Let the heavens and the earth praise him,along with the seas and everything that swims in them!
