15 But I have hoped in you, O Lord. I said, "You are my God."
16 My fate is in your hands. Rescue me from the hand of my enemies and from those who are persecuting me.
17 Shine your face upon your servant. Save me in your mercy.
18 Do not let me be confounded, Lord, for I have called upon you. Let the impious be ashamed and be drawn down into Hell.
19 May deceitful lips be silenced: those that speak iniquity against the just, in arrogance and in abusiveness.
20 How great is the multitude of your sweetness, O Lord, which you keep hidden for those who fear you, which you have perfected for those who hope in you, in the sight of the sons of men.
21 You hide them in the concealment of your face, from the disturbance of men. You protect them in your tabernacle, from the contradiction of tongues.
