55 “I called on your name, O Lord,from the depths of the pit;
56 you heard my plea, ‘Do not closeyour ear to my cry for help!’
57 You came near when I called on you;you said, ‘Do not fear!’
58 “You have taken up my cause, O Lord;you have redeemed my life.
59 You have seen the wrong done to me, O Lord;judge my cause.
60 You have seen all their vengeance,all their plots against me.
61 “You have heard their taunts, O Lord,all their plots against me.
