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.
26 Please help me, Lord God!Come and save mebecause of your love.
27 Let others know that you alonehave saved me.
28 I don't care if they curse me,as long as you bless me.You will make my enemies failwhen they attack,and you will make me gladto be your servant.
29 You will cover them with shame,just as their bodiesare covered with clothes.
30 I will sing your praisesand thank you, Lord,when your people meet.
