20 Only grant these two things to me, God,so that I will not have to hide from Your presence:
21 remove Your hand from me,and do not let Your terror frighten me.
22 Then call, and I will answer, or I will speak, and You can respond to me.
23 How many iniquities and sins have I committed? Reveal to me my transgression and sin.
24 Why do You hide Your faceand consider me Your enemy?
25 Will You frighten a wind-driven leaf?Will You chase after dry straw?
26 For You record bitter accusations against meand make me inherit the iniquities of my youth.
