13 But me? My prayer reaches you, Lord, at just the right time.God, in your great and faithful love,answer me with your certain salvation!
14 Save me from the mud!Don’t let me drown!Let me be saved from those who hate meand from these watery depths!
15 Don’t let me be swept away by the floodwaters!Don’t let the abyss swallow me up!Don’t let the pit close its mouth over me!
16 Answer me, Lord, for your faithful love is good!Turn to me in your great compassion!
17 Don’t hide your face from me, your servant,because I’m in deep trouble.Answer me quickly!
18 Come close to me!Redeem me!Save me because of my enemies!
19 You know full well the insults I’ve received;you know my shame and my disgrace.All my adversaries are right there in front of you.
