19 Let his curses surround him,just like the clotheshe wears each day.”
20 Those are the cruel thingsmy enemies wish for me.Let it all happen to them!
21 Be true to your name, Lord God!Show your great kindnessand rescue me.
22 I am poor and helpless,and I have lost all hope.
23 I am fading awaylike an evening shadow;I am tossed asidelike a crawling insect.
24 I have gone without eating,until my knees are weak,and my body is bony.
25 When my enemies see me,they say cruel thingsand shake their heads.
