14 The arrogant rise up against me, God.A gang of violent people want me dead.They don’t give a thought for you.
15 But you, my Lord,are a God of compassion and mercy;you are very patient and full of faithful love.
16 Come back to me! Have mercy on me!Give your servant your strength;save this child of your servant!
17 Show me a sign of your goodnessso that those who hate me will see it and be put to shame—show a sign that you, Lord, have helped me and comforted me.
