20 But you, O Lord, do not take your help far from me; be attentive to my defense.
21 O God, rescue my soul from the spear, and my only one from the hand of the dog.
22 Save me from the mouth of the lion, and my humility from the horns of single-horned beast.
23 I will declare your name to my brothers. In the midst of the Church, I will praise you.
24 You who fear the Lord, praise him. All the offspring of Jacob, glorify him.
25 May all the offspring of Israel fear him. For he has neither spurned nor despised the pleas of the poor. Neither has he turned his face away from me. And when I cried out to him, he heeded me.
26 My praise is with you, within a great church. I will pay my vows in the sight of those who fear him.
