14 For the Lord will not forsake his people,nor abandon his inheritance.
15 Judgment shall again be just,and all the upright of heart will follow it.
16 Who will rise up for me against the wicked?Who will stand up for me against evildoers?
17 If the Lord were not my help,I would long have been silent in the grave.
18 When I say, “My foot is slipping,”your mercy, Lord, holds me up.
19 When cares increase within me,your comfort gives me joy.
20 Can unjust judges be your allies,those who create burdens by decree,
